It just so happens I have the very thing. Running a 42x16 gear. Just need to tape it and get some pics and I'll give you the full low down....unless you want straight/ riser bars.

He was considering bullhorns like mine so I wouldn't worry too much about taping it for a photo. Look forward to seeing it.

Alright then....
It is a Concorde Astore frame 58cm cc (59cm'ish ct) with a 57cm top tube. My friend reprayed the top tube as it was a bit of a mess, he done good job but the colour match and masking is not perfect. He also touched in the few minor scratches the frame had. It has Columbus cromor tubing with lovely chrome forks and chrome rear triangle. The frame really is top notch quality.

Headset: Campagnolo Chorus
Stem: Cinelli 1A

Didn't go for the Concorde. Nice frame and was probably a great bike when it was geared, not as a fixed gear though.
Does anybody happen to have something more appropriate? Parts?

I have a 58cm Raleigh Reynolds 653 frameset out for powder-coating (in light blue) it comes with a Chorus seat aero seatpin and stronglight headset. The frame/pin will be for sale for about £140.
My friend who is a bike mech can make up a fix/free to your spec, typically whole lot would be about £350 all in for typical components or bring your own and he will assemble it for you for about £30.
My friend spent one day on my fixed gear and loved it. He now rides mine whenever he can, so he needs to get his own.
Pretty open to offers... but preferences would be:
-front brake or drilled fork
-high gearing (I run 45:14 and he liked it)
-£300-400
No point listing more, if you have something close that you are parting with I'd really like to see it.
We're down in Sussex at the moment but often come to London.
Thank you !
