        On board the Type 12 frigate HMS Lowestoft (1960) alongside the fitting out berth of Alexander Stephen & Sons Ltd at Linthouse, Glasgow.  The photographer is in the marine engineers' mess between 57 and 62½ stations on 3 deck looking forward and to starboard from the starboard side of the centreline showing double bunk berths against the starboard side of the ship with a large hammock stowage bin in the corner.  Greatcoat lockers are against the forward bulkhead.  Kit lockers and a refrigerator are in the centre of the mess on the leftt.  Three mess tables with stools on either side take up much of the deck space.  A mirror and an electric fire are fitted to a pillar and another electric fire is fitted to the hammock stowage bin.  A watertight hatch leading down to 4 deck is between the hammock stowage bin and the greatcoat lockers.
