I've never heard of such a Reg, indeed it would be absolutely normal to
have 2- or 3-pin 5A sockets for small appliances and lighting and 3-pin
15A sockets for heating, up to c. 1948.
Any wiring old enough to have 2-pin sockets might be unsafe for other
reasons.

A mix of 2 and 3 pin sockets was common in the 60s. A minority of
places still had that in the 80s.
