These are very interesting photos! They appear to be wartime, 1941?..does someone have the gen on which year the London County Council registrations were please?

The Met "GOLI" list gives 1941 as first issue of GGW, where the GW defines London CC, the sequence using GGW with year letter prefix A (1963) was allocated but never issued as were all year letter prefixes from GGW to YGW inclusive. HGW + 3 figs, the next in sequence, was first issued 1945.

Its difficult to see accurately, but the vehicle third from the left I think is GLB 65 but could just be GL 865 owing to pixellation. GL + 3 figs is possible but unlikely being Bath CBC, but issued 1932 - 1947. More likely fits the London idea being a 1941 first issue again with HLB appearing in 1946.
