Abstract
The Historic Building Survey at the former Kodak Factory was undertaken by MOLA (Museum of London Archaeology) in September 2017. The site is currently occupied by 48 structures, 11 of which were surveyed at HE Level 2 and the rest at Level 1. Most of the buildings on the site date from the second half of the 20th century and were purpose built and industrial in nature with almost no decorative detail. Two of interest were the Power House with its distinctive black and white chimney, and the locally listed two storey WWII bunker, which was constructed beneath a 1930's brick building demolished in 1996. The bunker, known as Station Z, was built and prepared to house the headquarters of the Air Ministry in the event of a German invasion of Britain.
