This photograph was the second Paper Negative exposed at the lower pond at Cusworth Hall Doncaster.
Not knowing the true speed of the paper, I chose ISO 5 and metered using an incident meter.
I'd guess that's the right ISO speed. I made B&W emulsions commercially for around a decade 1976-86 and that's what I'd expect from an Ilford emulsion.
You need very little room. 1986-9 I had a very small darkroom maybe 6ft x5ft (definitely no larger) with two enlargers a Johnsons V45 (5x4) and an M601, and I made 24x20 inch prints .. I'd just down sized from a darkroom you could turn a transit van in.
