This aerial view captures the remarkable progress made on the new light structure for the Ford Motor Company Limited at Dagenham. The photograph, taken in October 1960, showcases the bustling activity and innovation within this iconic car factory located in Barking and Dagenham, Greater London. The building depicted in this image was specifically designed for stripping down vehicles, primarily tractors, and preparing them for export. It boasted not only a spacious workshop but also featured a canteen and staff dining room to cater to the hardworking employees. Additionally, a nearby medical unit with toilets above ensured that workers' wellbeing was prioritized. The construction of this impressive facility commenced in April 1960, marking an exciting chapter in Ford's history. As evident from this snapshot frozen in time, meticulous attention to detail went into every aspect of its development. Published as part of Laing monthly newsletter Team Spirit by A© Historic England Archive, this print offers us a glimpse into one of Britain's most significant industrial complexes during the 1960s. Its significance lies not only in its architectural grandeur but also as a testament to British manufacturing prowess during that era. As we admire this historic image today, it serves as a reminder of how far our automotive industry has come while paying homage to those who contributed their skills and dedication towards making Ford Motor Works at Dagenham an emblematic symbol of British engineering excellence.
