This building is part of the old Bristol aeroplane shadow factory that helped to build nearly a 1,000 Bristol Beaufighters during the second world war it later became part of the Westland helicopter group of companies. In the foreground is one of the now sadly overgrown old aeroplane dispersal aprons which can still been seen today as can most of the old perimeter track which formed part of the old Weston airport - see other pictures on this site.
