Spotted this down the bottom opposite the Travelodge.
It's black so not a posh model, but does have a full chaincase, rim brakes and nice mudguards with the peak bit on the front. Seatpost and saddle are absent. I reckon maybe '40s - '60s..?
It's tatty and rusty; perhaps not beyond redemption if you're really determined but I did wonder about use for spares since the chain case looked in reasonable nick and I know often their "pie plate" gets lost.
I'd consider rescuing it myself but I can't be arsed with the walk tbh and realistically already have too many bikes.
Apologes for the crap pics - was shooting into the sun..
Coincidentally there are also some cheapo single-walled ally rims abandoned up the tow path, which would probably make a decent replacement for the chromed steel on this one..
