About 5 DCU
Reverse dateless plates place the numbers before the original local index letters, so the registration carries local authority provenance without a year marker. The CU index mark traces back to South Shields, now associated with Tyne and Wear. This reverse sequence was issued from the 1950s onwards as earlier dateless runs became exhausted. At 4 characters, 5 DCU is shorter than most registrations in this era.
