 When looking through these photographs, I was puzzled by my sense of familiarity with the Engineering Hall exhibition building. I know that no such building still stands in Bellahouston Park today. However, it transpires that the building was dismantled, and moved to Prestwick Airport - literally 3 miles from my house. It is used today as a BAe Systems factory!
