Your bike reminds me of a Japanese copy of a Raleigh Sports called a Londoner from the same time period The Londoner has a three speed hub,not Sturmey Archer,Copies of Raliegh fenders,chromed but not up to British quality. A copy of and enclosed chain guard etc. sounds like it may have been made by the same company that made your Roma.
