The LBS also recommended changing the bottom bracket as the flanges might be an odd size. A good close look shows the part on the outside to be labelled Bayliss Wiley - Made In England, but taking it apart shows the big part that runs through the middle to say Made In France with the letters A and 18 engraved in it. The grease in there is still white and the bearings all roll about nicely, so I think I shall be keeping it :)
