1919 Taunton 5hp?
Yes! It is a Taunton, although it's a lot bigger than 5hp - they were rated at 14hp, and this is a 1914 car (one of four) which was rebodied post-war and so your date of 1919 is probably about right.

A typo on my part.  There was a 12, a 14 and a 12/15.  I meant to type 12/15 but omitted to check my typing before I posted the message.  :-[
