The lettering on the side indicates that this is a coal merchant's lorry. Phil Champion has informed me that: "This is an Austin K9 - military version of the Austin Loadstar. According to DVLA it was built in 1954 but not registered until 1983 - I presume this is because it was army surplus. The vehicle is used daily for coal deliveries."
