What year was this bike made? I'm not aware that lo pros were ever built by the original Hetchins of Southend on Sea, production stopped in the late 60s. The name then passed through a number of hands, including Bob Jackson so it may be from that era. You can still get a new Hetchins today.
The cynic in me asks how sure are you that it is a Hetchins? There's nothing particularly about this frame that says Hetchins: e.g. curly stays or fancy lugs, and replica decals are easy enough to get.
