22/04, yes, I think you are correct. Some time late in 1967 - I think - the grass area between the terminal and the taxiway was fenced off and designated a spectator car park. The fence was one of those roll up wooden stake types which fits the appearance of the one in the background. There is an aerial shot somewhere on this thread which shows the car park very well - I will try and locate it.
found it, not sure who to credit it to originally
