Based on the serial number, I'd say early 50s. I suspect the centerpull hangers are not original. The fork crown is interesting.

The British are well known for respraying their bikes. Looks like they did a nice job, probably in the mid-60s, with the lug lining. But that is something the Italians didn't do.
