Gloster E.5/42

Does anyone have any illustrations of the Gloster E.5/42 (GA.1) project, please? This was studied as an alternative to what became the Meteor, with a single Halford H1 engine, low wing, “Vampire like” intakes, T-tail, and tailwheel undercarriage. Apparently a wooden mock-up was built, but so far I’ve been unable to find any pictures. Thanks.

There’s a great deal of info in the National Archives under AVIA and DSIR.
