An elevated view looking down from the cliffs onto a port quarter view of the passenger cargo/liner Jebba (1896) aground broadside-to the cliffs of Bolt Tail, near Hope Cove, Devon. The ship has a list to starboard. Lines stretch from the ship to the cliffs where the Breeches Buoy system was used to rescue to the 155 passengers and crew, at least one chimpanzee and three monkeys. A number of cases? and smaller cargo crates are floating the water off the stern of the ship. The righthand side of the photograph is dominated by the rugged cliff-face.

The Jebba was on its way from Nigeria and the Gold Coast when it ran aground in thick fog on 18 March 1907.
