I was an apprentice with Avro/HSA from 1965.I can't throw any light on the history of these buildings but Barry reminds me that I saw in that building
a rather fine German glider which had been used for pilot training circa WW 11.
Also was the Slingsby T21 used by the works gliding club stored therein?
I'll never forget its creaking wings and seeing the Dinky Toy-sized cars over Stockport.
