The Cove House Inn
The Cove House Inn, part of which dates back to a cottage built in the 18th century, is the far left building in the distance. It began operating as a pub from at least the 1840s. You can read a detailed history here www.portlandhistory.co.uk/the-cove-house-inn.html
As can be seen from the modern photo below, the nearer building just above the boats no longer exists. However, I reckon the fourth building along, with chimney stacks at either end, can be seen below just right of centre above the rubbish bin on the promenade. I also think the right hand building with a dark end and tall chimneys is the one that remains in today's world although clearly updated.
The date of the above photo is unknown, as is the photographer.
