Can You Tell What It Is?

Building Manchester

I went to Manchester Airport to drop my friend Bridget off for her flight back to MN, USA or at least the first leg of the journey. I saw a sign for the plane viewing area not far from the airport and thought it would be nice to see if I could see her flight take off. I was quite early and mooched about for quite a while and noticed the building in the photo above.

The building was like a decent sized hangar, but not quite the correct design for that purpose at least to my view. I was intrigued so walked much closer and was amazed at what the building was for. Maybe I already knew but I think not. I knew I really had to get access inside for some pictures for the Leeds daily photo.

I did get access and was pleased that I had done so.

Can you tell what the building housed? Answer and photo tomorrow.

  1. I have no idea, but if I had to guess, maybe a theatre or planetarium.

  2. As it's the Concorde Hanger, me thinks it houses a Concorde !!

    Do I get a prize ? An airbrush ? A filter ? A Canon SD980 ?

  3. Maybe some sort of an aviation museum?

  4. Like Andreea I would have to guess that it is a museum.
