I don't know what it's called, but it may well be the inspiration for Edvard Munch's 'The Scream'

I don't know what the badge denotes.

PS I have now enlarged the original photo and what looks like a badge is simply a reflection on polished brass. It is not a maker's mark.

Yes, it is a special built for Brooklands, but it's not Mother Goose.
