English: Machanhill Primary School HORSA Huts Part of the Machanhill Primary School campus housing the kitchen and dining halls. HORSA huts were constructed circa 1947, supposedly as a short term measure (10 year lifespan!), to meet educational needs caused by buildings being destroyed in the war, the post war baby boom and the raising of the school leaving age by the 1944 Education Act (the 'Butler' Act).
