I still have the manual for a Weston Master III and the booklet giving
Weston Film Speed Ratings dated March 1957. I have had these and the meter
from that date, so that dates me a bit!!
>From the back page the company was known as:

Sangamo Weston Limited, Enfield, Middlesex, England. The phone number at
this time was Enfield 3434 which won't be much use today!  I wonder if the
company still exists?
