No ...I will reiterate (good word at this time of day!) it was a (very)temporary aerodrome.

Is it the aerodrome that was used at Dover for the initial 1914 deployment of the RFC? No idea of it's local name.

Is it that very temporary aerodrome on the South Coast?
The picture looks familiar but no idea where I saw it or indeed where it was.

More clues......on land not far from a prehistoric and bronze age settlements - this general area(but not the aerodrome) is named after an ancient King of one of the southern kingdoms that made up England around 500AD-- 1500 years later a glider was named after the same person.

I can't post a new airfield pic (as the process of posting my last offering resulted in near divorce).
So the site is open to anyone who can.
