EDITORS COMMENTS
In this aerial photograph, The Hoover Building, located on Western Avenue in Perivale, London, stands as a testament to the industrial prowess of the early 20th century. Taken on the 10th of August 1932 by Aerofilms, this image offers a unique perspective of the sprawling factory complex, showcasing its intricate layout and impressive size. The Hoover Building was not associated with the Hoover Company, but rather served as a manufacturing hub for other industries. The image reveals a labyrinth of interconnected structures, each with its distinct shape and purpose. Smoke stacks rise high into the sky, releasing plumes of steam, while the vast expanses of tarmac and concrete are dotted with vehicles and machinery. The meticulous planning and execution of the factory design are evident in the organized arrangement of the buildings and the efficient use of space. The photograph also reveals the proximity of the factory to the Grand Union Canal, which would have facilitated the transportation of raw materials and finished products. This aerial view provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering insights into the industrial landscape of London during the interwar period. The Hoover Building, with its impressive scale and intricate layout, stands as a symbol of the technological advancements and industrial might of the era. This photograph, taken by Aerofilms, is a valuable addition to the Historic England collection, preserving a piece of history that might otherwise be forgotten.
