I guess the line shaft would be from the Thorneycroft factory.

This has made my week - a period photograph of a JCB 6D belonging to Wrekin Construction Company Limited of Shifnal, Shropshire. In my living memory Wrekin ran mostly Komatsu equipment, but when they went bust in 2009 they had a JCB JS220LC and JCB JS200W on their fleet.
There is an existing thread for Wrekin at:https://www.classicmachinery.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=205

Looking at the bucket teeth, it must load over?

It does look like it loads over, bet the operator had a sore neck after a shift on that.
