Identity of Spitfire sought

I am trying to positively identify this Spitfire on a 49 MU Queen-Mary trailer, presumably taken in 1941. The 49 MU connection would place the incident in SE England.

Aircraft has sky band and the serial appears to be P81?? Or could that be P85?? The top of what I took to be a 1 may have a forward facing slope to it.

The cannon bulges perhaps limit the possibilities, but can anyone identify the aircraft or suggest the date/details of the incident that led to this aircraft being damaged?
