An afterthought.
Here's the complete bike as I used it to ride over the old Bath Road 100 course. Obviously there's a fair amount of non original kit here, but 100 miles is a fair way to cover without a little help!

I bet that's an absolute riot to ride? I love the geometry, not great on hils I'm sure but once your on the straight it must fly, soaking up any pot holes and such like.
Is that a constrictor rear brake caliper. Is that something you have added or was that part of the original set up.
@veloham will love the chainset. -
The geometry of this reminds me of the early EF Russ I used to own-does it handle akin to a wheel barrow by any chance? On my Russ I seem to remember I used to have to kind of plan turning corners in advance in order to get round them smoothly! It was great fun too ride though, a shame it was too small really...(especially as I'm always keeping an eye out for another early 30s frame now.)

Thanks @clubman, high praise! I have decided to have another go at it though, I think one more attempt and I will have it how I want it. Either that or chuff it up from not being able to stop fiddling.
Yours looks great too, really in keeping with the bike / age of it. Did you go for the 'art deco' Duckett decals?
