Thanks RvL. Yes - my Feather was done slightly differently though - Ricky fillet brazed an oversized headtube on, then cut it away to form the 'lugs' and brazed a normal 1" headtube inside it:
Condor still have their Paris / Galibier frames made in the same way as the OP's, with cut plates that are bent around to form reinforcements at the tube joins (as Stedlocks mentioned):

^ @Regal has Ricky Feather Bi-laminate
A truly stunning frame. old school artistry without a hint of retrobollox. one of my favourites.
BITD rack/mudguard mounts were sometimes on seatstays, and an eyelet for a rear light was also fairly common on the DS
What's on the NDS? presumably there's one for the rack but are there any more?
( IIRC Osgear didn't require anything on the seatstay - just an eye under the BBshell and those wierdy pointy d/outs).
