No but the building shown was originally  WW1 accomodation huts before they were re-sited and converted to the 2 bungalows.
A once very busy Civil Airfield not far away.

You are in the right area John Walker. You might have passed the residence a few years ago on a flying visit. Nothing to do with Holiday Camp.

The original hanger is still there and shown as Combined Frame Makers.

@CAT - to the nearest foot.  Must have been a small building! ;)   So about 500 yards SW of the centre of the airfield.  Presumably where Page & Sons is at the sharp bend on Hopes Lane?  The 1:10560 of 1947-1970 shows an oval building at that point with what looks to be an apron in front.  https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/#zoom=17&lat=51.35322&lon=1.40427&layers=193&b=1
