North Acton: The Old Torpedo Factory
Unlikely though it may seem this building in St Leonard's Road does appear to have been a torpedo factory at some time, possibly built during the First World War in what was then a fairly isolated location, where the damage to life and property that would be caused by an accidental explosion would be minimized. However that said there are no positive clues currently on the internet, and, given its apparent past use, it surprisingly does not appear to be a locally listed building either.
