Cheswold was a British automobile brand that operated from 1911 to 1915, established by E.W. Jackson & Son Ltd in Doncaster, Yorkshire. The company originated in 1904 as general engineers before transitioning into car production. The design of the Cheswold vehicle was created by M.C. Innun Hunter, who had previously served as the chief designer for the ADAMS-HEWITT brand.

The Cheswold car featured a 2612cc 15.9 horsepower four-cylinder engine, which included separately cast cylinders. It was equipped with a four-speed gearbox and a worm-drive rear axle, with the gearbox and engine components manufactured in-house. The vehicle's radiator was uniquely mounted on the dashboard, reflecting a design style reminiscent of Renault.

During its brief production run, Cheswold offered only one model, which was an open tourer. A limited number of these vehicles were also adapted for use as ambulances. The brand ceased operations in 1915, marking the end of its five-year existence in the automotive industry.
