A 2¼ square roll film negative. Looking down on the Type 12 frigate Yarmouth (1959) from above the port quarter, high on the 150 ton cantilever crane alongside the west side of the fitting out basin of John Brown & Co Ltd's shipyard at Clydebank. The photographer is looking forward and slightly to starboard showing the progress of works. The funnel, main gunnery director and bulkheads for the torpedo maintenance room and boiler downtake have been fitted. Everything aft of station 50 is out of the picture.
