Pete, Thanks for this suggestion, but John Jones on another group has advised that it was new to Williams, Garway Hill, and passed to LCW (Llewellyn Christmas Williams), Llandeilo in 4/58.
My photo is definitely after 1958, so must be when with Williams, Llandeilo. The only query now is why it is displaying "Williams" when the Llandeilo operator apparently traded as "LCW" or "LCW Motors". My only suggestion to that is that possibly they did not bother to change the display in view of the same surname ! Your comment about it having been sold by Greenhous is probably correct, especially as Wye Vally had FCJ 354, so they were both probably registered by Greenhous at the same time.

Bedford OB with Duple C29F body, new 1948. I would appreciate some help with this coach. Firstly, which "Williams" is this, and secondly I can't trace the original (presumably Herefordshire) operator. It doesn't seem to have been in the fleets of Yeomans, Wye Valley Motors, Bengry or Sargeants. Similar OB/Duple FCJ 354 was new to Wye Valley in 3/48.
