English Electric Preston part

We had a thread on this a while back – I was wondering if anyone could ID it – it is the mount for the DF loop base and scale and has EEP stamps all over it.

The part numbers are GR51157 (or possibly GR31157) and SK253 7

I have seen GR prefixes on Hampden components before but the part number doesn’t fit!

It screams Handley Page but is not obviously Hampden or Halifax. Can anyone please enligten me – it’s just taking up space.

Who knows Cees… It doesn’t look that old, I hoped you would recognise it! 😀

How about this then?
Perhaps parts were subcontracted
