This has been languishing in the shed for way too long.
Old, presumably 60s, road/touring frame and fork. I have no idea who made it. I have no idea about the tubing, but it feels quite light and looks to be good quality. It has pretty lugs and is drilled for a (long gone) metal headbadge, so it was possibly a decent frame maker. Braze-on cable guides on the top-tube, down-tube, and chain-stay and a braze on shifter stop on the underside of the down-tube. Looks like it was originally painted in a shade of beautiful baby blue, but was overpainted darker blue and yellow with white pinstripes and a white fork. It is now ratty, especially on the top of the stays (and actually quite nice, in my opinion). So it needs painting or lacquering.
Seat-tube: 56cm / 22"
Top-tube: 54cm / 21"
Rear spacing: 120mm
BB threading: British
Fork threading: British
Seatpost: unknown (I'd guess 26.4 or 27.2 but haven't checked)Collection from Shadwell, E1 0AD.

I'm having a clearout of junk I've accumulated from stripping and building bikes. I have the following, which may be of use to someone.
ALL GONE
Spokes and nipples
All lightly used, I think from NOS wheels that I dismantled for the rims. Various lengths, some butted, some double-butted, some not butted. No idea of the brands. I think there are four wheels worth. It looks like there are 295mm, 305mm, 296mm, 297mm but don't quote me on that. Lots of nipples.Skewers
Fronts and rears in various states of disrepair. Shimano, Maillard, and unbranded.Bag o' Weinmann
Various bits from Weinmann calipers. You may be able to assemble a full one, you may not.Bag o' chain
A 1/8" chain and some connecting links by the look of it.Bag o' cables
Various lengths of cable inner and outer, most of unused.Straps
Red leather and older, more worn Made in England white leather.All free to a good home. I'd prefer if someone could come and take the lot off me, rather than one bit at a time.
Collection if from Shadwell, E1 0AD.

Yes, that would be possible.

Alright. I'll keep an eye out and will let you know. I'm sure someone will have an Amazon delivery coming.
