But what was the place in WW2, and who used it?

And where's the Canberra bomber gone? I wouldn't have thought it airworthy!

Tony,
...........was it the Fleurs field station for the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation?

Using Microsoft Live Earth, which seems to be newer images, the Canberra and adjacent buildings are gone and at the NW end of the "runway" (at least it looks like it could have been), there are not so many buildings there either. Probably trucked the plane out.
