Thank you to John Dickson for commenting on
the car near the middle of this photo - the one with the long
front bumper.

Morris Cowley
"I think this could be a Morris Cowley, 1933
model."

Morris Cowley?
John also sent me a photo of a
1933 Morris Cowley which certainly looked like a good match for the car in
the middle of this photo. |
1930s
I had originally captioned the
photo at the top of this page '1920s''
However, after reading
John's comments above, I've changed the caption to read '1930s'. |

Thank you to Allan Dodds for identifying three
more of the cars.

Austin 20s
"I think that the car on the immediate
left and the two on the immediate right of the Morris are Austin 20s.
They are pre-1930 vehicles as they do not
possess front bumpers which came out in 1930."

Other Cars
That's all the cars on the
front row now identified, apart from the car at each end of the row. |
