It uses Maris Otter and Crystal, Fuggles and Goldings according to their own website. Knowing very little and using this as perhaps a start for the more experienced to come in on:

Original Gravity: 1.043
Final Gravity: 1.010

I'd wager yeast and water have something to do with its style.

I know this isn't the recipe, and even with gw's book, I'm going to have a crack at this, potentially with a couple of minor changes!

No don't. The Crystal's wrong. It isn't the right colour. Try a recipe from the GW book, you'd be much better off listening to someone with his experience than me.

What colour Crystal?

Whatever the normal one is, not light or dark. Is it 120L? Or closer to 80? I forget. Should keep better records. I brewed something similar to that recipe, but over hopped with only Goldings and ended up liking it.
