Melampus [ex-Chios] (1914)

Scale 1:50 (as written on the plan). Plan shows the upper, lower and forecastle decks, as fitted, of the Medea class destoryer Melampus [ex-Chios] (1914). 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. There are tears along the right hand edge of the drawing. This plan illustrates a vessel that was originally ordered for Greece, which is why the scale measurement is metric.
