After Stanhope Motors lost its original financial support, Leeds butcher Walter Bramham invested in the Stanhope brothers' unusual three-wheeler and Bramham Motors Limited succeeded the earlier company in 1922. Its sole 8 HP model used one front wheel, with a J.A.P. V-twin mounted immediately behind it and driving that wheel, plus a two-seat torpedo body. The business failed to gain volume and in 1924 became Stanhope Brothers Limited when Bramham returned to his original trade. A preserved car displayed at the Yorkshire Motor Museum confirms that the model progressed beyond advertising, but no reliable production total or additional Bramham type is known.
