It appears that I had neglected the hindsight obvious point that this
object lies somewhat distant from the Galactic plane, and therefore if a
Cepheid is most liable to be of the Population II variety, that is a W
Virginis star, from the period the CWA subclass would fit best.
A quick scan through the GCVS and elsewhere suggests that the apparent
magnitude, colour and proper motion are not inappropriate compared to
some known CWA stars.
