A 3½x4¾ glass plate negative. A port bow view, taken from a crane wide off the bow looking aft and to starboard, of the Type 12 frigate Yarmouth (1959) alongside the south-east corner of the fitting out basin in John Brown & Co Ltd's shipyard at Clydebank. The guns of the twin 4.5 inch turret are slightly elevated. The ship has had her final coat of paint. Her pendant number F101 is on the hull and her squadron number 6 is on her funnel. Her stern is obscured by a large crane on the quayside.
