Petworth & Pulborough District Badges
For those badge collectors out there, there are many different variations of the District badge (reference ed103-8
International Badgers Club). All badges feature a stag's head, the District's emblem derived from the deer found at Petworth Park.
Six examples of the single badge are shown below with their respective backings.
Since 2006 there has been a double badge with the District badge combined with the West Sussex County one. The
first issue had a very yellow background (pictured top). The second edition (pictured bottom) has reverted to the gold background.
Both badges have a white backing.
