I posted this over at WAF but didn't get much response, so thought I might be better placed to try here, where I should have come in the first place tbh.

I recently picked this Battledress Jacket up in a local charity shop, but I can't fully work out what it is.
The buttons to me look like the Belgian lion, although are made by Gardiner Co. London, and have clearly been on it a very long time.

It doesn't seem to fit with the construction of post war BD jackets (to my limited knowledge), and seems British made.

My best guess is free Belgian forces, but that would be one hell of a find if so.

Anyway i'll let the photos do the talking, any thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks
