Whilst travelling through the wilds of Norfolk last week, I came across this and wondered if anyone could provide an identification. I know the photograph is not of very good quality as it was taken quite late in the evening and on a phone but hopefully there is enough detail for someone to come uo with something.

Correct. And judging by the paint scheme, last used on a GR1.

It's in a recycling facility in the wilds of Narrrrfooook. I pass it every week on the way to Norwich International Airport. There were also some Tornado wing pylons there at one time.
