70cm frame!!! Cannot be many of them about. If it’s your size £400 is ok unless you intend to drop more money on groupset, wheels, tyres etc etc.
I bought a 531ST touring frameset on here for ~£100 and a complete bike for ~£250ish both ~60cm frames.
Those big frames don’t sell all that quickly so if it’s not your size you’re stuck with it. That would be my biggest consideration.

I used to have a big bike like that, 75cm, can't remember what I sold it for but it went quickly. When the person came to collect it, he was far too short and I said that I didn't think he was tall enough. He went for a ride and decided to go for it. It was a hands up, your decision moment for sure
Any thoughts on the price of that big Yates, seems expensive but I'm no expert on old steel values?
