http://checkpoint.ansible.co.uk/cp014.html I am still researching but won't have much time now until after the weekend.

Since the portrait was taken in Bournemouth I imagine that it was in the vicinity of the Miramar (since Tolkien had returned to Oxford by then) - however it could be Branksome where he used to live and where he returned to visit the Tolhursts. I may go and take a look.
