A 2¼ square roll film negative. Looking down on the Type 12 frigate Yarmouth (1959) from 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. The 4.5 inch gun turret, director, foremast, funnel, emergency conning platform are now in place. Work is well under way on the aft superstructure. Everything aft of station 60 is out of the picture.
