I don't believe it is a Grand Prix based on the chromed forged rear dropouts and the lug work which looks a little nicer than you typically see on a Nottingham built Grand Prix, in general this bike looks to be nicer than a Grand Prix. It does appear to be a close match to a late 60's Super course or maybe early 70's Carlton branded Raliegh. A close up of the seat cluster and seat post size would help to confirm.
