HMS Queen Elizabeth (1913)

A view from the forward end of the forecastle deck of HMS Queen Elizabeth (1913), looking aft towards 'A' and 'B' turrets and the forward superstructure. The anchor chains are clearly visible, as are a pair of fire hoses lying coiled on the deck in the foreground. 'A' turret is partially obscured by an open hatch cover, but the guns with their tompions fitted are not obstructed.
