you sure it ain't a left over freewheel from where someone couldn't get it off so resorted to breaking it off ?

Yeah, that looks like it could be the guts of an old freewheel. Does it still "freewheel" (turn) or is it just a fixed lump on there?

Changed my mind, i think  :-\ it's a early cassete hub. you can get a rear cog and snap ring for it. occasionally on us ebay.

If it still freewheels, then its like 2020mad says.  :daumenhoch:

You need a toothed ring and a Cir-clip type ring. Its like an early cassette style where you can chance the number of teeth without changing the freewheel mech. I dont expect it will be that easy to get the bits for it  :-[

Local Bike Store Nick, there's one in Walton on Thames, East Street Cycles that should have one and it's not too far from you  :daumenhoch:
