What were these hangars?

Judging by all the aerial photographs, there appears to be at least two hangars still standing from the early days of Luton.

If my photo posting skills work, there will be two photos below of different eras. The one circled blue is along Percival way and now a vehicle maintenance workshop. Another one is the arched hangar (circled red) opposite the easyJet academy on Prince Way. I've also got earlier pictures from the 30's I think showing the hangars being built.

It's interesting that they are still standing - does anyone know if they were of any significance or were they just plain old hangars?
