Somewhere on the forum, Coquet put up an image from the "Britain From Above" archive and on the image you can see the gasometer in the top left and that was taken in 1932.
As an aside, there is a new image on that site showing the harbour in 1947. It shows the Raf base and also a building near Cliff House which I dont have clue about. Looks a bit like a coast guard or look out post??
Just found an image for Coquet Island too. You can see Hauxley and Newborough pits in the background too.
