Hi all, I have just discovered this during a recent sort out of the stuff under my desk, I am pretty sure its British but does anyone have any furthur info about it as signaling lamps are not my specialty! Thanks.

As it has AP on it, it's Royal Navy, Admiralty Pattern.If you google up H.M.S.Collingwood, they have a signals museum, with a lot of signalling lamps listed.
