It is either a 350cc B31 or a 500cc B33. From the diameter of the cylinder it is most likely the 350cc B31 but it is hard to tell from the photograph.

Message from Dave, whose photo it is:

-----------

"Thanks Richard, and to everyone who has provided information. Looks as if between you, you have it spot-balled as the B33 500cc.
I was the kid on the bike in 1955/56 and I remember it so well as I was growing up in Sheffield. It came as a very pleasant surprise to know that it is still around".
