The photo, and its caption "The first de Havilland aeroplane which flew, photographed at Seven Barrows, where I learned to fly" comes from "Sky Fever" by Sir Geoffrey who presumably knew of what he was writing!
Any road, here's a bit more "Aahh de Havilland" (in memory of Mike Ramsden) to identify the location.
