SD - you are too good at this - Huntsville it is
It opened as Huntsville flying field in the early 30s with a sod runway which closed in 1941- reopened in 1942 with a paved runway- Eastern Airways services began there in 1946

edit: just checked ... it has appeared before, but with a much more recent photo.

R.A.F. Honington?

Looks a bit like Manby?

Not Honnington, Manby or Shawbury.

edit: CGB - you were closer with Shawbury:ok:

Sleap ? (yawn, just to get to 10 characters)

Sealand.

Ciarain.

Scampton? -- I think

I think it may be Ternhill

None of Sleap, Sealand or Scampton.

Closest so far is Honnington - by about 10,500 Smoots according to GE:ok:

Will check back in in the morning.

edit: Neither is it Ternhill

How about Hemswell?

Not Hemswell either

RAF Catterick

Sorry Tempsford, it isn't Catterick either.

All suggestions to date are all far too north.

I'm just off out for a couple of hours ... I'll post an overhead on my return.

Actually double checking my source - I might be talking a load of cobblers as I now think that it might be a generic photo shot relating to the subject in hand.

So here are the overheads which should be a dead giveaway

If I am talking cobblers, I have no idea of where the original photo was of - apologies.

airfield ?
 

Silverstone ? OH if correct PH.
