Neither

[neilshouse]

Galloway?

[Ray B.]

Yes sir! Year and model maybe?

[Arunas]

Is it already time to answer for others? If yes then I'd say 1922 Galloway 10.5hp

[Ray B.]

Still time for others? I should have locked it for Neilshouse but since I forgot, yes.
From my source, wrong year and model designation. I have another source saying the same, but I am no specialist. Nevertheless, since you (or anyone) work on neilshouse find and have the easy part, I expect you or him to give me the same details.
I'll give a point for the make, another for the model.

No random guesses please. I frown at random guesses.

"a car made by ladies for others of their sex" 

According to sources I've found on the internet it probably is the Galloway 10/20. That's insofar not a random guess for I found a pic of a 1925 GALLOWAY 12HP UF SPORT.
Maybe my source is mistaken, but the range of types was only about two different models: the Galloway 10/20 and the Galloway 12. I couldn't find any pic of the 10/20, but reasonably rule out the 12HP. The years of production were 1920-25.

[Ray B.]

Galloway 10/20 it is. It may be the same car than a "10.5 hp"  but this is what I had and I believe this was the correct designation at the time.
So Neilshouse gets the point for the make, and allemano for the model. I give up asking for the year, which is 1923, both because the car was probably looking the same several years in a row, and because you couldn't be sure unless you find the exact website where I saw it. And I don't care to.

Here is what Wikipedia says of this peculiar make:
The company was very unusual in the world of car making in that it was largely run and staffed by women. For a while the cars were advertised as "a car made by ladies for others of their sex". The factory had originally been built as a wartime aero engine plant and T. C. Pullinger, the manager of Arrol-Johnston, was persuaded by his daughter Dorothée Pullinger to keep the factory open to provide local employment. She was made a director of the new enterprise and set up training courses and apprenticeships specifically for local women. The apprenticeships were to last for three rather than the usual five years as the girls were thought to be better at attending and quicker learners than boys.
