TNA has some RNAS plans in a folder under MFQ 1/61 (formally ADM 1/16427), e.g.
MFQ 1/61/11 Cornwall. Plan of camp and runways at St Merryn RN Air Station. Reference note to buildings and roads. Compass indicator. Amended to April and August 1944.

Is this the same plan as you posted a pic of?
Thanks for your info.

I have used the online TNA copying service for large documents. Had to wait for a quote though. A bit pricey but not too unreasonable given the task involved. I wonder if this would work on the enormous plan?

Found two weblinks today re St Merryn, one was by an ex FAA guy who revisited the place recently. In the passage that describes his visit he mentions that the distinctive Cinema building is still in place. This imediately made me think of the above building. Just after that I found another site with a pic of the above building, and captioned 'Cinema or Dining Hall'
I think I'm happy to settle with this being the station cinema.
