Barn find number 2 Dawes

Along with the Carhall my work friend's husband also found this Dawes

Any info is much appreciated

Again sorry for the quality of the pics

Re:

Looks like a lowish spec touring model , it has eyes on the forks for a rack which may add to its appeal for someone looking for a cheap sturdy tourer. , Its value would be minimal so not really worth throwing much money at it as a project outside of functionality if that`s what you`re asking?. but should make a good comfy runabout.

looks in good condition, well worth getting it rideable.

Strange one. Cable guides on the top tube would suggest 70s. But what is on that headtube badge? Should be a rivetted on metal badge in the 70s&80s

Yep, no braze on for the downtube levers. And can't see any for the rear mech, no pics of the BB but looks like 70's so should have a rivet on head tube badge.

Lugs not exactly Crespera but could be Haden so a mystery frame
