A slightly distant port side view, taken from well abaft the beam, of the Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Company cargo liner Nyanza (1956) alongside berth 38 in Tilbury Docks, Essex. Some lighters are alongside the after part of the ship. The photographer is looking across the dock from waste ground between Berths 35 and 37. A steel hulled workboat is in the foreground on the shingle shore and a concrete jetty is beyond it. Transparencies numbers P62495CT to P62512CT inclusive were taken on the same day.
