Hello,

it seems that this crs corresponds to the epsg code 27700
- I found the epsg code here 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordnance_Survey_National_Grid
- you can look here http://spatialreference.org/ref/epsg/27700/

You can use the complete Proj4 definition 
http://spatialreference.org/ref/epsg/27700/proj4/

CRS("+proj=tmerc +lat_0=49 +lon_0=-2 +k=0.9996012717 +x_0=400000 +y_0=-100000 
+ellps=airy +datum=OSGB36 +units=m +no_defs")


or use the epsg code

CRS("+init=epsg:27700")


Hope this helps,

Emmanuel
