A slightly distant stern view, taken from very fine off the starboard quarter, of the Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Company cargo liner Strathaird (1970) under tow in the South West India Dock, London, bound out. She is in ballast and is manoeuvring to enter the lock while being towed by the tug Lord Devonport (1959), whose stern is on the left. The Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Company cargo liner Stratharlick (1969) is alongside Shed N on the left and the forepart of the Ellerman liner City of Winchester (1976) can be seen alongside Shed O in the left background. Transparencies numbers P64527CT to P64537CT were taken on the same occasion.
