Default is this english?..

Hello,
I have acquired this bass and am very much interested in what it might be...
Any info would be greatly appreciated. I was told by someone that it might have been made locally and local is London!

Measurements are:

String Length: 42
Upper Bouts: 21.6
Mid bouts: 15.6
Lower: 26.8

If you do not know what this is, send it to me. I will find out what it is. I do not see how you would get a bass like this and not know if it is English or not? Did you inherit this? You can email me if you wish to keep this private.
