A Sight England Is To See Before Long: A Shed For A Dirigible Balloon Under Construction, Near Paris, 1909. 'Already the building of the great shed in which the "Clément-Bayard II." will be housed while it is in this country has begun. The frame is being made in sections, and by the end of this month will be ready for delivery at the spot chosen as the site for the "garage." The building itself is to contain 400 tons of wrought-steel work and 65 tons of corrugated iron. There will be no door at the approach end; the wind and the rain will be kept out by means of sail-cloths'. From "Illustrated London News", 1909.
