His collar has his number - PC 42, or PC 422? So, possibly PC J Jones of Dinas as seen on left, middle row of the first photo above. (Diolch i / Thanks to Martin Lewis)

That photo is definitely PC John Jones of Dinas. He was my great grandfather. He died in 1942 and he is buried in the churchyard in Dinas.
