Thanks for this. The old photo doesn’t seem to show any aircraft, either this was because there was a period after the war when the site was completely cleared, or perhaps the photo pre-dates the war as I think there were aircraft on site continuously until the 1990’s.
Interestingly, I spoke to an elderly local resident who said that not all the aircraft arrived by road and rail, some were flown into a short strip that existed there at the time of the war.
