If Jane the curator at the museum says they don't have a stable belt, then they don't have one.
I have a few hundred picture of East Lancs men in uniform, and access to hundreds more.
Iv'e never seen or heard of one. I've looked at the link Dave put up. You may be asking the wrong question, just because some one calls them a stable belt, it does'nt mean all regiments with different coloured belts use the same name.

Have you tried the link to the Great war forum
