Biography

Scottish motor racing driver who was one of the leading British female racing and rally drivers in the inter-war years, and one of only four women ever to earn a 120 mph badge at the Brooklands circuit. During the war, Jennings worked as an ambulance driver and then at Bletchley Park's intelligence de-coding centre, and afterwards became a journalist and was Vogue magazine's motoring correspondent from 1948 to 1957.

She was the daughter of James Allan, a member of the wealthy Scottish-Canadian family who owned the Allan Line steamship company. During the Second World War she served as an ambulance driver, and was later posted to Bletchley Park where she worked in the "intelligence de-coding centre," based in Hut 4.

In 1937 she married Christopher Jennings, later editor of The Motor, and retired from racing. They had one son. She died in Carmarthenshire on 21 September 1998, aged 89.
