Building Ships: A Fitting-out Basin
Summary
This is a very industrial scene of a shipyard on the waters edge with large crane on the centre towering over the water. Ladders run up side of the dock and boats are moored alongside the dock. Tons of tiny figures are on the land and some of them are in the boats on the water. Smoke billowing out of multiple funnells in the background on the left and right. This is one of the British War Series.
