These new premises were built in 1936 so that Aerofilms Ltd could carry out survey and map-making contracts for the Aircraft Operating Company as well as their on-going oblique aerial photography. The building included general offices, show rooms, a drawing office, photographic libraries, darkrooms and studio, a mapping room and the photo library. The staff had moved in by the end of January 1937. Later on, in 1938, a purpose-built space was prepared for the Wild A5 Autograph photogrammetric machine. |
