That would be

T. D. Cross and Sons Ltd. Vesey Works, Shady Lane, Great Barr Birmingham, B44 9EU, England

At the end they made freewheels and headsets. But the company went back to 1880 or something! I have, in the box, a premium freewheel set called a "Silver Wing".

The headsets were fairly good and came as the standard on Witcomb USAs.
