Found online so not sure where this was taken. Ouistreham perhaps? I do remember those Norby Trailer Savoyade tilts (bottom right). I used to pull them out of Dover docks on traction work - mostly triaxle ones. Being a short-arse I wasn’t so keen on those high drop-sides.It shouldn’t be too difficult to date this image, as the period will be somewhere between the beginning of series 2 Scanias and the beginning of Ferrymasters trailers bearing the P&0 logo.

It looks very much like the extension that was built at Ouistreham for Brittany Ferries not all that long ago.
I sailed into and out of Ouistreham many times from 1992, some times in a 16 ton Volvo, some times in my
Mercedes van, and a couple of times by car, doing a few important parcel deliveries, and back to Portsmouth
on the night sailing, In those days the ships were " Duke de Normandie " and the new " Normandie ".Cheers, Ray.
I am not fully certain that the photo is Ouistreham, If it is, It will be from 20 or 30 years ago
before the outward extension was created. Cheers, Ray.
