The cross bar seems to have a persons name on it next to the union jack ?

Re:

White Spider? Lack of rack eyes (on the frame) suggest so, but a lugged BB. I'm not sure that the fork is Roberts, but difficult to tell with it being black all the weld/braze detail is lost. Reckon I've got a Roberts fork that would fit this frame though - if anyone is (eventually) interested...

Lovely, not sure about the gold rear end though. Not convinced it's a Roberts fork either.

Chas offered several forks other than his own. Sorry for the poor quality but you'll see below as well as Pace RC30 and Bontrager there was a P2 option (which I've seen in one brochure described as 'modified and fillet brazed!) and Direct-Drive.
You'll spot the Maniton suspension option - I think that's a town in Devon?

If I had of gone for this, I would've used a thick wooden broom shaft and a lump hammer........ man style!
