A close port side view of the cable ship Dame Caroline Haslett (1950) in the R. & H. Green and Silley Weir dry dock No. 1 in their ship repair yard at Blackwall, London. She is being permanently converted from a collier to a cable ship. The photographer is looking forward and to starboard from alongside the ship amidships showing the electric cable guide wheels in the foreground above the after hold with the control cabin immediately ahead of them and the supporting gantries elevated above the deck. Transparencies numbers P63554CT to P63558CT were taken on the same occasion.
