Just spotted this on the BBC website. A sympathetic development including renovation of hangars and the Officer’s Mess… Blimey! If you’re going to develop an old airfield this has to be the way to do it; other developers take note!

Would be nice to have the cash to buy one of the apartments…
Let’s hope they do a great job in the conversion/restoration.

The hangars at Hooton Park would benefit hugely from that kind of attention. Paid the guys there a visit the other day. What they are doing to save them is highly commendable I just hope they pull it off in time!
