A starboard side view, taken from well ahead of the beam, of the Orient Line cruise ship Orford (1928) at anchor off Trinidad. Her starboard anchor is deployed. Two vessels are secured abreast alongside Orford's starboard side; the inboard vessel being the motor bunkering tanker Servitor (1929) and the outboard vessel is the steam tanker Iere (1929). An accommodation ladder is rigged to the Orford's main deck aft and lifeboat 19 is suspended in its falls at deck level. A small lighter with an awning rigged aft is close to the ship's stern. Negatives numbers P84200 to P84202 inclusive were taken on the same occasion.
