Need contacts for "breaker" yards in England

Hi gang.

I'm looking for contacts, phone #'s, names, addresses, emails, websites, resources, anything for "breaker" salvage yards in England. Specifically, I'm trying to locate a good used Type 9 five speed gearbox/transmission from a Ford Sierra as its called in England to swap into my '76 midget 1500. The current crop of five speed conversion "kits" are out of my budget. So, following a couple of diy'fers who have previously done this conversion, I'll try to follow suit.

Thanks for any and all advice.

Have you tried ebay UK? There are quite a few - like this one which seems to be a good deal.

Look for a trashed Merkur XR4Ti, there were quite a few of those here, has the right box for you - maybe you'll get my old Merkur's gearbox.
