No. 3 [Upper Hangar] Deck, location 3C. The Cable Deck near the fore peak, looking forward and to port. In the foreground is the chain for the portside anchor, with a deck equipment locker beyond it to the left. The portside hawse whole is partially in view to the right.

This is part of a series of photographs taken during the final stages of HMS Ark Royal's last major refit which was completed in 1970. The location references are derived from the deck plans in the latest edition of the ship's NBCD book.
