Tryig to ID an Aircraft?

Good evening,

MY house is on the verge of the Ribble Valley, infact the Aviation maps have us as VRP Blackburn, for some weeks now I have had many complaints from neighbours (cos they know I fly Helis) about a noise that can be heard nearly every day , when it was pointed out to me I listened intently and soon put the noise to a smallish straight high winged twin engined(Turboprop)aircraft constantly flying backwards and forewards at a hight of around 5 to 7500ft, this aircraft looks thrugh the glasses rather like some sort of Brittain Norman type A/c, with its constant backwards and forwards track and some very tight turns it looks like some sort of training sortie, but my mind needs to try to find out why such a boring seemingly day long flight over some pretty mundane sort of countryside( Jack Straws domain), can anyone enlighten me.

Many regards

Peter R-B
