Plaque on side of motor c1930s
« on: Tuesday 14 April 15 19:55 BST (UK) »
I can't seem to resize the pic of the motor sufficiently - this is a plaque on the side of it and I would be grateful for help in deciphering it apart from the words Caves and Cheddar Thank you

My guess would be "Visit Gough's Caves Cheddar"?

could it be VISITING Gough's cave Cheddar as on this bus. It seems too long a word for 'visit' and too short for 'visiting'. I think you are on the right lines KGerrard.
