    Paul, The London Proof House mark appears just above the "ENGLAND". The same is mark probably on the top of the bolt handle too, and generally the barrels were marked at the muzzle end around the Bayonet lug. Back then though shooters would buy barrels just to keep a spare and swap them, so non proofed barrels are quite common!
    It looks like a standard 1960's Fulton target conversion. They did hundreds to customer orders.

    Well you learn something every day, I am so used to seeing either the BNP for Birmingham or the NP for London I had completely missed the early marks that you have spotted, many thanks for that. Of course we now have to look out for the CIP over N mark that is now being universally used so more possible confusion in the future.
