The green outline was created by superimposing a map from Google Maps and tracing the indicated airport boundary. The part of the airport east of the railway has become mostly car parking.

The original Gatwick Manor is by the northwest end of the racecourse/golf course marked; partly blurred by the map's old crease. Comparing old and new maps indicates that the modern Gatwick Manor hotel is not the Gatwick Manor shown at the time but a rename for another old building, near Lowfield Heath.
