Bikes: 1940s Fothergill, 1959 Allegro Special, 1963? Claud Butler Olympic Sprint, Lambert 'Clubman', 1974 Fuji "the Ace", 1976 Holdsworth 650b conversion rando bike, 1983 Trek 720 tourer, 1984 Counterpoint Opus II, 1993 Basso Gap, 2010 Downtube 8h, and...
If you look at all the Allegro threads you'll find mine, which came with Campy hubs, cone dates 58 and 59, so I assume the bike is from about 1960. My serial number is six digits,165167. So if yours has only five digits, I'm going to guess it's quite a bit earlier than 1958, unless Allegro seriously upped their production numbers right around then (which is of course possible).
