That used to be/still is part of RAF st mawgan.
The old runways you can see might be the original ones closed down sometime after ww2. The circles are probably radio/beacon towers or something with their radiation safe 'no-go zones'.
The newer airfield to the south (east of watergate bay) were still in use later at least in the 60's. I know someone who was stationed there (they nust still be in use for something as there are 2 hercules sitting next to the runway).
There is a 3rd airfield further north. I dunno what this is but its no doubt part of the same thing.
