On board the floating crane London Leviathan (1965) alongside the cargo liner Nuddea (1954) loading lorries for Zambia in the Royal Albert Dock, London. The photographer is on the port side of the deck of the crane abaft her wheelhouse looking to starboard, aft and up showing a 3-axle Leyland diesel lorry stowed on deck abreast number 3 hatch while another is being lowered abreast number 2 hatch. The Nuddea is berthed starboard side to the wharf and only her forward part, from number 2 hold to the face of her superstructure, is in the picture. The London Leviathan is outboard of Nuddea and is starboard side to the ship. Negatives numbers N85685 to N85699 inclusive were taken on the same occasion
