Presumably the hangar frontage with its distinctive RAF roundel is original, the restoration work undertaken by the Hooton Park Trust being mainly concentrated on the roof. The unique roof trusses are called 'Belfast', hence the name Belfast Truss Hangar. Former WW1 era aircraft hangar of RAF Hooton Park. Image
