Caernarfon Anson

Does anyone know the identity of the Anson wreckage in the diorama at the Caernafon Air Museum. I believe it was retrieved from Snowdon,

I believe the undercarriage came from N9855 which crashed on Pen yr Oeu Wen on 8/11/43. It was from No 3 (O)AFU at Halfpenny Green. Not sure about other the bits.

No, TX235 is now at Coventry with Air Atlantic. The Anson I’m referring to is a Mk1 wreckage in a diorama representing a crash site in Snowdonia which is displayed inside the museum,
