I've pinched this from a site.
Should give you a good idea of what size cable you have.

Then again yours is stranded... :(
 
I’d say 6mm with a 2.5mm cpc at a total guess

I agree, although I don't really approve of guesswork in electrical installation ;)

prfobably imperial 7/.044 or maybe 7/.052
Or 7/036, with a 1/044 cpc,

Don't think it is, because it says BASEC down the side and they didn't exist until after metric cables came in.
