Scale 1:50 (as written on the plan). Plan shows the inboard profile, hold and sections, as fitted, for the Medea class destroyer Melampus [Ex- Chios] (1914). The drawings shows the sections at frames 9, 19, 29, 39, 57 and 72 looking forward. The plan also shows the sections at frames 97, 115, 122, 131, 143 and 152 looking aft. The signature of the Fairfield Admiralty Overseer is printed on the drawing. A Fairfield Shipbuilding stamp, dated 30 June 1915 is also printed on the plan.
