I'm from Cardiff and at one time worked a temp job at Cathays cemetary (in the 1990's), which was hit during one of the bombing raids, demolishing part of the cemetary and it was reported in the local paper at the time that dogs were running around with the disturbed bones.

A fantastic helmet.

yes and dont forget the grave stone that ended up in someones bed..... I live about 2mins away, lots of commonwealth war graves in the cemetery

[Bond]

or so I'm told

It also has the earliest recorded victim of a fatal parachute accident, a woman in the 1860-70's, or so it says on the gravestone.
Maybe not relevant, but!
It also has the grave of a man who's leg is buried in a different cemetary (might be other way around, with leg in cathays and body elsewhere).

Thanks for all the help with this helmet.
I have been informed that the region No 20 is Llanishen and the wearer would have commanded five fire pumps.
