Anyone suggest a grass strip near Folkestone suitable for Piper Arrow 4 up?

What's wrong with Lydd. Hard runway and not far from Folkestone. Otherwise it has to be Headcorn. Nothing else near there would comfortably take a 4 up Arrow!

How much grass would a 4 up Arrow need?

There's a strip at Alkham that would take a PA28R, but not sure who owns it.:ok:
