Posting to three different forums I have lost the plot as to what I have posted where so apologies if some are duplicated.
This is Luton Airport in 1938 and you can clearly see the farm house. I don't know whether the airport commandant lived there, my earliest recollection is H T Rushton in the early 60s (and probably 50s) but it did become the 'airport admin building' until the building of the 'new' terminal when the admin offices relocated to the SE corner of the terminal and where I had my interview (four days after starting work!) By then the commandant was a man called Cole.
The farm house then became the Luton Flying Club bar and doss house and was fortunately was just a few steps from the old control tower where we repaired to after an afternoon shift only to have to be back at 08:00 the next day.
