Two young ladies seated by the after 4" gun on board Laforey (1913)

A view along the deck of Laforey (1913), of the 9th Destroyer flotilla, looking aft along the port side. Two young ladies, identified as Eileen and Elsie, are seated on the liferaft rack by the after 4" gun which has had its shield removed. The original caption says the background is Portsmouth, however it does not look like Portsmouth.

The original caption to this negative was "Eileen & Elsie at Pompey"
