BS 1456 is a now inactive spec out of the United Kingdom - I have no idea what spec replaced it, if any. The material is equivalent to Type 1527 and is identified as 1.5% Mn steel castings. Composition is 0.25-0.33 C, 1.2 max Mn, 0.5 max Si, and 0.05 max P & S. No information listed on mechanical properties - they probably are dependent on heat treatment.
