Monitor One Of Three Broadside Launch
1913
Some time before the launch, the monitor on the slips, seen from the channel with men still working on the slipway. Looks exactly like one of the three monitors built for Brazil but bought by the Navy. Severn launched 19 Aug 1913, Mersey launched 30 Sept 1913 or Humber launched 8 Aug 1914. See 1682 and 1684
