The Hotchkiss works in Gosford St - later the Morris. After the war this site was taken over by the Inland Revenue and the Ministry of Pensions and National Insurance - later the DHSS. In 1966 or 67 the larger part was destroyed by fire - people were singing in the street 'the tax office is burning' - wonderful community spirit! The smaller part that lies alongside Gosford St was then mainly DHSS until a new office was built. The site has been extensively refurbished and is now part of Coventry university.
