The serial could be entirely fictious as several were used for film work in varing states of completion by Aces High including G-ASMN/N3455.
In addition N4565L was bought for spares from Ipswich. This includes removal of the fin.
There were also examples from Senegal and Belgium also at North Weald
There is much info on Strathallan here, including the disposals

Many of the original drawings for the whole range of Bristol Aircraft used to reside with the technical publications department at Fillton in the late 1980’s.
During a clear out before site re-development most of these were sent to the RAF Museum. I remember Bulldog drawings definately going.
At the time there were also some Brigand GA drawings as I had previously looked at them when I was working at Filton and had the apprentices rebuilding the gun bay doors for the Swift WK198.
The last time I was in contct with Filton, about 15 years ago, there was very little still with the photographic departments, technical publications or the publicity department.
The best course is to enquire of Hendon
How about Fort Paull’s Beverley?
Delivered to Court Lines on 14th March 1973 and ferried to Hull on 30th March 1974
Swift WK275 pre-dates most of those on external display as I think it moved to Upper Hill in 1968, long before most of the museums were around
Most of the Vulcans have now been outside since 1983, letters to flight International etc at the time said this was folloy and they would last may be 5 years.
The Dakota KP208 was at Aldershot from 1970 until its recent move to Colchester.

Saw this aircraft not long before it left for Woodford whilst on camp at St Mawgan. Did not think it would ever fly again.

The closest serial that I have as being lost in France is P3535 AF:C which crashed at Bachy on 19/05/40.
Given the similarity in the numbers is it possible that the records recording the demise of P3535 could be incorrect and that it was P3533 ?
Is the crash area in the right vicinity ?
The minutes silence would have been for the following:-
The Varsity, WJ897, belonging to the Leicester Aircraft Preservation group crashed on 19th August 1984.
