Default RAOC Cast Cap Badge "TR & Sons 1943"

Does anyone know of this manufacturer?
"TR & Sons".
A search online has revealed a candidate but it's a company that appears to have been formed during the 1980's, post dating the design of the badge and what is presumably the date of manufacture, "1943".

Thanks, I'd missed that thread, probably because I was reading the manufacturer's mark as "TR" rather than "FR".
3 or 4 of them have turned up on ebay over the past few months.

Just dug out another example of this badge that I have,this one has a clearer striking of the manufacturer's mark - "TR" rather than "FR".
