This sounds like something that someone here might be able to help with?

 From the ALUG mailing list, someone trying to read Acorn floppies.

I can forward replies back if anyone can help.

[..SNIP..]
The company name begins with 'A' but it's not Apple. It's an Acorn
formatted floppy as was used on their Archimedes and Risc PC machines. I
have a stack of these floppies and want to recover their contents and
also a SCSI hard disc. I'm awaiting delivery of a SCSI cable from ebay
so that I can hook up the drive to an old PC and have a crack at reading
the contents of that too.

Hmm.<wonders if it would be easier to try reading the floppies in the
old machine instead>

In case you wonder what I'm going to do with the contents of the
floppies, here's the answer -
