The location is definitely Blackbushe as this aircraft (formerly SE-BUB) arrived in 1952 and didn't leave until 1955 (as VP-KKJ) when it was delivered to its new owner in Kenya. The thing that proves its Blackbushe beyond doubt is the yellow and red fence on the right of the image, erected to stop aircraft from landing short on the portion of runway 01 positioned south of the A30 trunk road.
