hansom

n. two-wheeled cab which seats two people and is drawn by one horse

A Hansom cab is a kind of horse-drawn carriage first designed and patented in 1834 by Joseph Hansom, an architect from Hinckley, Leicestershire, England. Originally known as the Hansom Safety Cab, its purpose was to combine speed with safety, with a low center of gravity that was essential for safe cornering. Hansom's original design was heavily altered by Chapman to improve its practicability, but retained his name.
