Hooton Park Hangars Museum

Hooton Park Hangars are open this Sunday. Great local museum with a large selection of aircraft and vehicles mostly connected to the site as former home to the RAF's famous 610 'County of Chester Squadron.'

Aircraft displayed include Spitfires, Gloster Meteor, De Havilland Vampire, Gypsy Moth and many more. See our volunteers working on current projects through our sister charity 'The Aeroplane Collection' and the ongoing work from the 'Griffin trust' and the renovation of our Chester Tram.

There is a free vintage bus shuttle service operating to and from Hooton station starting at 10am until closing at 4pm and runs approximately every 20 mins. We have a café on site selling hot and cold beverages, cakes and basic snacks. Along with the aircraft museum we have a victorian printing museum an air raid experience in an original WW2 air raid shelter, displays from Ellesmere Port model boat club and the local ham radio group.

We are dog friendly!

A great local museum displaying more aircraft each year, some on loan from RAF Cosford. Open on the last Sunday of each month until October 10am-4pm. We are currently also open every Saturday 10am-4pm but without the Café, bus shuttle or other attractions as a trial.

We're situated very handily just off Junction 6 of the M53 motorway in Hooton, Cheshire.
