From as far as i remember from my days in London i think a goosekneck is a bend that was put on the old lead mains feeding a house. This was to allow for possible ground movement so that there is slack on the pipe and therefore pipe wont pull out of joints or get overstretched
Any vertical vent pipe (usually going to atmosphere) bent back on itself 180 degrees to prevent water
or foreign object ingress.
Open vent over F & E tank on heating and over CW storage tank off of cylinder.

Attached to its shoulders maybe?
swanneck is probably the posh version rather than being "GOOSED".....
