You may be able to catch Jason rourke on London fixed if he's not to busy, he will be able to tell you the year, who built it and who painted it, rourke have good records. Rourke's usually make good money and yours looks to be clean. I'm on my mobile so can't quite make out the full wraparound seat stays which it should have. I'd say around £350, if you can get the builder info and sell on eBay it could get a fair bit more

I would assume yours is slightly earlier, mine was late 70s early 80s. At that time a lot of the frames were built by Paul Washington with paintwork by Bob Dawson. If you have no luck tracking down Jason on lfgss its best to ring the shop 01782 835368.
