Baughan was a British cyclecar and motor cycle manufacturer in business from 1920 until 1936. From 1920 until 1921 they were based in Harrow, Middlesex, then moving to Stroud, Gloucestershire. After motor cycle production finished the company continued in general engineering and plastics.

Henry Baughan was an aircraft engineer and motor cycle trials rider who in 1920 made his first cyclecar. This was a four-wheel model powered by a water-cooled Blackburne or air cooled JAP V twin engine of 998 or 1097 cc. Drive was to the rear wheels through a Sturmey Archer three speed and reverse gearbox and chain final drive. The chassis had a wheelbase of 89 inches (2260 mm) with suspension by quarter elliptic leaf springs all round. Lightweight two-seat open bodies were fitted. Car production seems to have finished in 1925, but new cars were still listed for sale up to 1929. It is not known how many cars were made, at least one survives.

A range of motorcycles was made from 1930 to 1936 using a variety of engines also by Blackburne or JAP ranging in size from 250 to 500 cc engines. Production is believed to have been small.

Baughan continued to exist into the new millennium as a producer of plastics processing equipment. They manufactured a large range of equipment including single screw extruders and 2-roll mills. Much of this equipment is still in use today. The company was eventually acquired by Rondol Technology Ltd, a Staffordshire-based manufacturer of polymer processing equipment who continue to support owners of the equipment.

Racheal Baughan has suffered with BDD her whole life, for many years she hid away from the world locked in her dark bedroom, in 1998 Racheal was finally diagnosed with Body Dysmorphic Disorder "Imaginary Ugliness Syndrome" by an American Psychologist. After suffering from OCD, Anorexia, Bulimia, Agraphobia and wishing her life to be over she ended up trying to take her own life on several occasions!, Self harming became her only release from the pain inside, Racheal describes this as "feeling trapped in a body that held her back from living a 'normal' life" Once she was diagnosed she soon realised that there was very little help available in the UK, she had no choice but to help herself, she now leads a successful and happy life with the illness, and has written a book "The Butterfly Girl" in the hope that it will create further much needed awareness on the illness. Racheal says "The moral of the story is that you should never judge a book by its cover, there is no stereo type for mental illness, we are all individuals, and we will all find different ways of coping, but I am hoping my story will at least show others that with any mental illness, there can be a light at the end of the tunnel" For full details visit www.thebutterflygirlrachealbaughan.co.uk
