As you suspect the Austin Seven front bub design is such that there is no adjustment for the ball bearings.

Ball bearings must have internal clearance so there will always be a slight movement. 

If tested with the handbrake on the hub should be 'clamped' and as Bob notes the movement will be in the kingpins.
