It’s an optical flat from the rear fuselage of a PR3 or PR7, the heater duct shown is different on a PR9.

It certainly looks like part of the nose blister fitted to several marks of Canberra, the blister has this flat window within it and was used as the bomb aimers/camera window.
Here is the best pic I have of one on the Canberra at Newark air Museum…….

HTH,
John.

If it is not a canopy from a B model, it might be part of the PR.9 model, see photos below. Can’t tell from your photo link as it doesn’t work.

hi and thanks for replying
you beleve that the window would have come from a ship????????
SS Canberra – of Falklands fame. That’s called a joke by the way.
. . .do you know were i would be able to have it identived in the uk
thanks for your time teresa any help is realy apprecated
Could be identified here . . . if you post a picture of it. Not counting the canopy or nose glazing, standard Canberras only had three ‘windows’. PR versions had about nine. Post a pic, let us see what you’re talking about.

Yes, I do believe that’s a Canberra window. Possibly from the ship though!
