These are usually described as GS Limbers and were used as general light weight trailers in all Horse Units.

In MG units they would carry two Vickers in their crates and associated equipment.

Any more than a few rounds of 18 Ponder would totally over-load them so gun kit possibly but ammunition seems unlikely.

Data Plate names it as "Wagon Limbered, F.A., Hind", that is the rearmost of a pair of Field Artillery wagons.

There is a thread somewhere on the one I used to own but my comments on gun kit rather that ammo remain. As such they are identical to the GS Limber irrespective what the plate says.
