Cheshire Best Kept Stations Cheshire Countryside Hooton Railway Station Hooton Park Trust

Hooton is the station gateway for NESS BOTANIC GARDENS - winner of the Large Visitor Attraction category at Visit Chester & Cheshire Tourism Awards 2008.  Many visitors take the train to Hooton and then board the 272/273 hourly bus service to the Gardens. The bus departs from outside the railway station and takes you to the Garden's entrance. 

WIRRAL COUNTRY PARK includes the former Hooton to West Kirby railway (now a colourful footpath), wildlife-rich woodlands and low cliffs near to the visitor centre, grassy promontories rising above the miles of fine sands along the Dee Estuary.

The HOOTON PARK TRUST was formed in 2000 with the aim of forming a Trust to oversee and manage the restoration of the remaining WW1/2 hangars on the former RAF airfield at Hooton Park.

Situated just off the M53, alongside the Vauxhall car plant, much still remains of the ex-610 Squadron Hooton Park airfield and its buildings. Three original hangars dominate the landscape, surrounded by the original access roads, taxiways, and numerous outbuildings and offices, all steeped in the colourful history of this one-time Royal Air Force airbase.
