This is believed to have belonged to the late John Cherry, of Southampton Wheelers.

well after a bit of searching, it could appear that the Arragain has Nervex Legere serie 110 lugs, although i now think that the twin plate fork crown is from Wagner or Oscar Egg, as the gear ends are definately Osgear, which would mean the set up should really be like the red frame photo as above. guess im going to have to search out some Osgear products and get the frame restored now!
