My eyes have finally merged ... I'm off to bed.

I'll be dreaming of windmills and vicars all night at this rate.

Hope someone solves the mystery before morning.

Night all.

And socks...
And naval oficers ...

Goodnight - I'm off too: we'll have to leave it to our transatlantic and southern hemisphere colleagues to work out!

The number plate on the 1100 looks like (D)AO  to me - Cumberland.  Suffix is probably C which was 1965.

Geoff,

I tend to agree with you it looks like "DAO 57C"

(We don't know for sure if it was a local car though I suppose - but we can perhaps
presume it was)

Lesanne - yes - Cumberland is Cumbria  :)

To get shadows like those in the photo, the sun in Skirlaugh would have to be shining from the NORTH.
