This bus is a Leyland Titan and looks pre WW2 because of the number of window sections in the bodywork, the flare in the lower body section, and the rounded front mudguards. Since it carries the more modern shape of radiator I would suggest that it is a Leyland Titan TD5 from 1938 or 1939.

The original front engined Leyland Titan ran from 1927 to the late 1960s, finally giving way to the Atlantean after several years of production of both types in parallel.
