This workshop building forms part of one of the most complete hangar groupings of the First World War period, of significance in both a British and European context. It is included for this reason, there being also buildings of this type at Duxford and Old Sarum. It is the most impressive workshop building on the site, being sited to the rear of the central hangar.
