Yarmouth (1959) in the fitting out basin.
A 3½x4¾ glass plate 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 and the mainmast is now installed. She is without her radar and radio antennae, signal lights, boats, torpedo tubes and oerlikons. Everything forward of station 20 is out of the picture.
