Yes it probably is an RM6: http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~pattle/nacc/arc0417.htm

Worth restoring?

In pure financial terms...No, not really, as it would cost far more to do a proper restoration job, than it would probably ever be worth when it was finished, but somebody somewhere will want it, so don't throw it away!
