Paul,

Post war, a 1 ton category was introduced and in the 4x2 class there were Commer and Bedford, then the 4x4, Humber as you mentioned, also Austin K9 and Morris Commercial MRA1. Wartime 15cwt trucks that continued in service were re-classified as 1 ton, for example the Morris Commercial C8 4x4.
