The nearside one is correct - just checked.
I must have done it because it looks good !
Had to take off everything because of a broken brake shoe spring last week...
You shouldnt need to dismantle hub to remove brake shoe springs — there is a cunning little hook available and with a bit of heaving and several cups of tea the springs can be removed and new ones fitted.
I like your penny washers — Jack French swore by those.

Had been advised to always use washers with non standard wheel nuts - they are self locking ones, untapered. Have this setup on the 7 since 10 or so years, no nut (or wheel) lost in that time !
