Help IDing an old family photo of car factory.
Discussion
I need some help from fellow car nerds.
Going through some old family photos today, and came across a photo of a factory my great great uncle worked at.
Some of us think it might De Dion Bouton, or Morris factory at cowley.
Has anyone got any ideas, as my knowledge of prewar stuff is terrible.

Although quite similar to a Crossley radiator cowl, it's a De Dion Bouton design used in the early 1920's and the illegible script on the radiator reads "De Dion Bouton"
As all the pictures show coach-building activity, is it possible that the De Dion Bouton chassis had been shipped from their factory at Puteaux (in the suburbs of Paris) to be bodied in Britain?
