Prince of Wales Dock, Workington

Mid 1920s

View west along the dock towards the lock gates. A single funnelled ship, Elva Seed, is moored on the left. A dockside crane is lifting a bucket from the hold. One very large crane and a number of smaller cranes can be seen around the dock. A rowing boat is pulled up on the quay next to some sort of a winch.
