Benlow Works, Silverdale Road, Hayes - Hillingdon

Orchestrelle Factory of 1909-11. Reinforced concrete frame, with brick exterior. Four storeys with a 19-bay elevation. The entrance bay has a semi-circular stepped brick architrave to the doorway and segmental arched metal casements flanked by rusticated pilasters slightly set forward and breaking the parapet. Temporary repairs have been undertaken so that the building is weathertight. Discussions have been held with the owner, but no solution is agreed for future use as yet.
