It looks like a 1940s era Birmingham Phillips roadster. Phillips made solid, utilitarian bikes in those days. Most were not luxurious, but they were well-built.
Based on the photos, the bike has a dented top tube in front of the seat lug and a bent front fork. The bike is not valuable enough to warrant a full restoration of re-painting and re-plating.
I would work through it one problem at a time, starting with the mechanical issues and then the cosmetic. The front fork will have to be straightened. If it is a simple backward bend, even a simple tool like a bumper or bottle jack could be adapted to the purpose. If the fork is bent sideways or in three dimensions, a professional fork straightener might be needed.
The dented top tube does not look too terrible. I'd be inclined to cosmetically fix with epoxy and then sand to match the shape and profile. If the bike had thin wall tubing, I'd be more concerned, but these frames are generally over-built in terms of strength.
Then you can address the paint and plating. With the paint, I'd be inclined to try to carefully strip or sand back to original paint and see what kind of condition you have. I'd clean up the plating with your choice of bronze wool and WD40, or oxalic acid bath.
They're interesting bikes and a little different from the Raleighs.
