At the top of the photo is an area called St Mary's Bay; I spent a week there at school camp in 1958 can vouch for the 'busiest airport' title; there were Freighters and Superfreighters passing over every 20 min H24.
There were several ALGs on Romney March plus a pre-war airfield at St Mary's Bay which was often used as a div for Lympne.
