The centre section of the cabin looks like it slides back - and is there a steering position here as well as at the back?
Seeing this reminds me that there is currently no life ring on Jubilee - perhaps I should get one.

I remembered reading about this boat and have found the thread at http://www.canalworld.net/forums/index.php?&showtopic=25352 which suggests that there is a centre steering position. Also I think it is on Jim Shead's site, but misspelt with only 1 l in Hillary
Thanks Andy, that's an interesting thread.
The Frobishers are also mentioned in this interesting site.

Along with a lot of other interesting early boats.
Roger, thanks. I read the whole thing - fascinating!
