Unit 4, Heslop

One of the older industrial buildings on the Heslop/Halesfield estate. This one was formerly the materials testing laboratory of the Telford Development Corporation, which undertook quality assessments on the various building materials being supplied to, and used by, the firms building the Telford New Town in the late 1960s and early 1970s. My father ran the place through much of that period. It is now occupied by car repair workshops and other light industrial uses.
