About 505 TP
Reverse dateless plates place the numbers before the original local index letters, so the registration carries local authority provenance without a year marker. The TP index mark traces back to Portsmouth. This reverse sequence was issued from the 1950s onwards as earlier dateless runs became exhausted. At 5 characters, 505 TP is shorter than most registrations in this era.
