The ship is flying the Blue Peter from the port yardarm of her foremast. The photographer is looking across the roadway and a garden area showing a number of motor cars parked on the quay in front of Berth 101 shed. The ship is badly obscured and everyhting aft of the forefunnel is out of the picture. Berth 101 was opened in 1932.
