One of a number of old vehicles seemingly dumped here, this Dennis Dart bus was new in 1992 to Isle of Man National Transport. It was later acquired by Ensignbus, a dealer based in Essex, before passing to the YMCA at Northampton. Why it has ended up here is unknown, but see http://www.busphoto.co.uk/media.details.php?mediaID=43514 for a view of it in its heyday.
