Is that a chain attached to the top of the pendant? If so, does it have a clasp like a neck chain? (it doesn’t look very long in that photo)

Thank you everyone so very much for trying to help
 it is just a base metal i think , there are no marks on the back it must have hung on something as there is the small chain on it,
thank you again
Patricia.

here is a St Johns ambulance medal issued to my dad. I think in the 1950's, not sure if it helps but the cross in the centre is very similar

It does look like a Mason order of the Knights Templar Cross or medallion.
