A 7000 lb iron anchor in Nelson's Dockyard, English Harbour, on the island of Antigua in the Leeward Islands. The damaged wooden building on the left is the joiner's loft. The double row of stone pillars is all that is left of the 1797 boat house and sail loft which was destroyed in an earthquake in 1871. Beyond the pillars is the pitch store and engineer's offices building. A ship's figurehead is set up on the quayside.
