There is provided a composite structure for an aerodynamic component having an aerofoil-like cross-section and a leading edge, the composite structure being in the form of a torsion box arrangement made from composite materials and having a core, the torsion box having a forward wall, an aft wall, a top wall and a bottom wall, together defining the core, the front wall being formed as the leading edge of the aerodynamic component. Also provided is a load-bearing composite structure for use with an aerodynamic component and configured for supporting at least one external load, this composite structure being made from composite materials and configured for being joined to the external aerodynamic surface of the aerodynamic component such as to be in overlying abutting relationship with at least a contact surface portion of the external aerodynamic surface, including the leading edge, at least a forward portion of each of the suction surface and the pressure surface thereof.
