Definitely not 1920: see flight number AFL3692 dated 31st March 1946. This image follows on directly from EAW000063. |

Was this photo taken in 1920? It shows the two large airship hangers demolished, while EPW047581, taken in 1935, shows them still standing. |

I believe this image should be the other way around. The site appears to be a mirror image of that shown in EPW000060a, and comparison with a map of the area (particularly the railway), would suggest that this image is flipped left-right. |

 Terminus of Kingsnorth Light Railway KLR), which connected this refinery to the SER (later SR) at Sharnal Street. KLR was opened in 1915 and closed around 1950. Locos used were a Kerr Stuart 0-4-0ST and petrol shunters. |
