Hi Keith;
Regarding the '47', - No - '47' was the number used for the LAA Regt of an Infantry Division 43/44? onwards, I'll check for the exact date.
The '6' you found would be the unit identifier, in this case. Also, your on the right track concerning the Battery Quarters and Tractor/Gun Numbers.
Since it is only possible to post one image at a time here Keith, could you send me your e-mail address and I'll send you an example of the markings for an LAA Regt complete (including coloured images).
Haven't found Malcolm's numbers yet, still looking.
Cheers
