daveg4otu.tripod.com/airfields/far2.html has pictures by the same photographer (Mays of Aldershot) of airships at Aldershot and Farnborough. Aldershot [en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aldershot] and Farnborough [en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farnborough,_Hampshire] are close together in southeastern England, in the northeast of Hampshire, near the border with Surrey (~35 miles southwest of London)
