    312 is A O Woodhead's ABC. 313 is an extremely obscure marque called a Slim (or SLIM?) driven by L Contamin. This courtesy of Donald Cowbourne's 1919-28 British Trials Drivers. (Donald sadly died a few weeks ago).

    The ABC was owned & driven by E.O (Edward Ogden) Woodhead, my wife's uncle. He got a bronze medal which I have. He got a gold medal in the same car in the MCC London Exeter trial Boxing Day 1923.

    PS The MCC London Lands End Trial was 30/31st March 1923; clearly marked on Woodhead's Bronze Medal. Presumably Autocar report/photo was published in April

    Possibly County Gate, when there was an actual gate present.
