On board the type 81 general purpose frigate HMS Tartar (1960) in Portsmouth Dockyard presumably in 1974 after refit. The photographer is in the crew's galley and preparation space between 45 and 50 stations on the starboard side of 2 deck looking aft from 45½ station on the starboard side showing a preparation bench and sink with shelves above, shelves and waste bins under and an ice cream machine at the end against the ship's side. On the right are a boiling plate unit with three pans of food on it, a stainless steel dresser incorporating a condensing unit with saucepans and a large can opener on it and the fryer control panel above it. Three boiling coppers, two steaming ovens and two roasting ovens are against the aft bulkhead.
