A lot of those aircraft were actually built at Chadderton, then transported to Woodford for final assy, and flight testing.
Generally speaking that's the way it worked, Chadderton - Manufacture, Woodford - Assembly and Test. My late father-in-law worked at Woodford for years and offers of more lucrative work elsewhere never managed to lure him away; he simply liked the place.
