Possibly a Buttons or Whitsun body

Bodywork is by Cuerdens of Blackburn, Lancashire.
Think Suff and Ips had 5 or 6 of these.

Further research gleaned from a number of sources shows that these WrT's were at some time or other resident at some or all of these Suffolk stations: Woodbridge, Framlingham, Nayland, Bury-St-Edmunds, Halesworth and Clare. This is a shot of the Clare machine, ORT875, believed now owned by the "Clare Commer Group" and restored to a high standard.

See picture 22918. See that picture for a more recent photo of this appliance I took it a couple of years ago outside Clare Fire Stn.

Looks a lot like the three Commers bodied by Plaxtons, which are on this site.

Another case of taking the full forward control Commer chassis and getting rid of the perfectly good front doors!
