The "Somewhere in England" picture shows
a lot of details. There is a Ford GTB parked
in the background. I wonder what this place
looks like now.

Yes i believe that picture is of portland harbour one of the biggest embarkation points, it still has 2 caissons that made up the mulberry harbours in France.
We visited there in 2007 and we had a duck ride into the harbour and entered the water from original slipway built for amphibious vehicles.
Also all of the headstones for the commonwealth war graves also come from portland.
