It's a Townend 581 from about 1960 made by G & R Townend Ltd. of Sheffield.

It is a Townend. It is not an 581, which was already a puzzle before:

Locked for you to find its model designation

Thanks.
G & R Townend called it the 581 (see picture below)!
Although they mention their imminent new '600' model they couldn't picture it because it's believed none were ever actually made...

oops, you are probably right. So a point is administered. Should we merge the two?

Thanks!
Although they don't look exactly the same to me they have the same name so yes, I think they should be merged.
