Anyone heard of the Miles Norton, a twin cylinder in a featherbed frame with I think a overhead cam?

Apologies for not being able to download pictures - I don't know how to! - I'm not computer savvy, I can download images on Facebook but this website eludes me.

That's the one.
Presumably a 750 Norton.

Bore/stroke makes it a single cylinder. It looks to have a Manx type cambox, probably modified to cope with the 100mm bore
