Thanks everyone for the help with this one. It's nice to get a location given the significance of the photo date for the handsome monoplane. We'll update the catalogue, and post the new data here in due course.

Two possible areas,Stag Lane, Edgware where the Hummingbird was built and Lympne where the Light Aircraft Trials were held in 1923. It's likely to be an early flight, possibly its first; no reg markings and the wings appear to be only clear-doped.

Unlikely to be Lympne, which is situated between the North Downs and Romney Marsh. Absence of hills or seascape. At this height Ashford or Folkestone would have been visible.
