I think that 556 Regiment RA (TA) was disbanded around 1955, and at around the same time 380 Light Regiment was re-formed. 380 Light Regiment then had three batteries - P (Church) Battery based at the drill hall on Moscow Mill Street, Q (Burnley) Battery based at Burnley Barracks close to Burnley Barracks railway station, and R (Furness) Battery based at or near to Barrow-in-Furness. Hopefully this might help with dating any photographs.
