Denso, formerly Alvis, Walsgrave Triangle, Coventry
Behind the fence stand the premises of Denso, a Japanese automotive parts manufacturer. Before Denso moved in, this was where Alvis plc built armoured vehicles, from 1990 to 1999, when production was moved to Telford. Alvis eventually became part of BAe Systems in 2004. The Alvis name and red triangle marque were acquired by the company in Kenilworth which provides parts and servicing for historic Alvis motor cars, and now builds modern versions of them; see Image], also Grace's Guide to British Industrial History on Alvis https://www.gracesguide.co.uk/Alvis .
Like most armaments companies, Alvis was sometimes controversial; armoured vehicles made here were supplied to the Suharto military regime in Indonesia, and from 1997 to 1998 a peace camp protested outside the factory. The camp was situated on the Walsgrave Triangle side of the factory, by the road; see the Coventry Peace House site https://coventrypeacehouse.wixsite.com/coventry-peace-house/about_us .
