That's the one, in fact a
Central Centaur IV B, as you say they were quite long lived as some were sold to Belgium and the last one survived until 1938!
My illustration was from the Fright Archive when they visited the Aero Show at Olympia in early 1920! The sketch depicts the fifth aircraft which was fitted with a three-float undercarriage. It was used for a week giving joyrides at Southend-on-Sea. It was converted into a landplane later in 1920 and crashed in October 1920.
