Browns Lane plant

The Browns Lane plant in Coventry, England was built as a Second World War shadow factory run by the Daimler Company.

It was also the firm's corporate headquarters and the home of the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust.

However, the core Jaguar XJ and XK ranges remained on the site until they were moved to Castle Bromwich in 2005.

Subsequently, the Browns Lane site housed just the headquarters and museum as well as 500 staff responsible for wood veneering for Jaguar, Aston Martin, and Land Rover.

Australian property firm Macquarie Goodman announced its purchase of Browns Lane in 2007.
