Frame identification

Hi all
Can any one help me to identify my bike frame. I believe it to be late 70s early 80s.
I have attached photos but have lots more.
Please help.

This is most likely a Ron Kitching.

Milremo dropouts were used on Bertin and Kitching frames:

This Kitching has the same brake bridge lugs:

Thanks for your reply I much appreciate it I've searched Ron kitching and I've found it may be an MKM bike .when I bought the bike the ducals where Brian Rourke but I've been told that isn't the case .
If anyone else can through any more light on the frame that would be great ,I just want to put the right name back on the bike.

Sounds like you have the answer but if in doubt then perhaps try retrobike.co.uk in the ‘road’ section.

This frame certainly has some unusual features.

Those pump pegs don't make any sense if it's a 1970's build - I remember being laughed at in the early seventies because I still had a pump with a flexble connector (I'd just restarted after a long lay off)

Also, is that a cable stop for a handlebar control cable cable for the front changer (just visible l.h. side of the down tube)? If so, that's a very 50's style when combined with a down tube lever for the rear mech.

On the other hand the cable guides under the b.bracket look eighties, as does the brake bridge.

Possibly this frame was built for some old bloke with unfashionable preferences about 1980, or it's an older frame with later mods.

It looks a perfectly good frame - my suggestion is: just enjoy it, don't worry about its origin !

This one shows the serial number 3734 in the same format and location:

Thank to everyone for helping to identify this frame I'm confident it's a Ron kitching, I'll find the correct ducals and finish my project.
