On board the motor tug St. Eval (1930) during the dry docking of the motor tanker North Earl (1956) in Falmouth Docks, Cornwall. The photographer is looking aft from the port side abreast the towing hook showing two men at the stern by the capstan winch controlling the running gog line attached to the manilla hawser. The tanker is seen from off her starboard quarter and she has the steam tug St. Denys (1929) alongside amidships and the steam tug St. Mawes (1951) connected to her bow to pull her round to starboard. The docks are in the background. Transparencies numbers P63560CT to P63640CT inclusive were taken on the same day.
