The photographer is in an unidentified office/store which is possibly No. 1 naval store between 8 and 12½ stations on 3 deck. A desk and cupboard unit are against the ship's side. Above the desk is a ledger rack and one of the books is titled 'Weapon systems'. Large boards fitted with bulldog clips containing papers are against the ship's side and the words 'Stores' and 'Requests' are on one of the boards. A rack of drawers has shelves above it.
