The meaurement looks like 22.5mm, in which case it is 'S' gauge, scaled at 1:64. Unusual in the UK, perhaps more likely to be of US origin?

The 22mm track 'OOO' gauge in the wiki link refers to a system by Schoenner in Germany dating to 1902, short lived and rare. I doubt that any was ever made with plastic sleepers.

22.5mm or perhaps 21mm as used to depict some narrow-gauge lines in O or broad-gauge ones in OO. Judging by the thick sleepers, this is not new track. Try looking on the back of the sleepers to see if a brand's trademark sign is moulded on.
