Yarmouth (1959) in the fitting out basin.

A 2¼ square roll film negative. Looking down on the afterpart of the Type 12 frigate Yarmouth (1959) from high on a crane alongside the south-east corner of the fitting out basin in John Brown & Co Ltd's shipyard at Clydebank. The photographer is looking aft and slightly to starboard. The frigate is almost structurally complete but is without her radar and radio antennae, signal lights, boats, torpedo tubes and oerlikons. Everything forward of station 19 is out of the picture.
