The former British Power Boat Co Ltd boatyard at Hythe, Hampshire
        
        The former boatyard of the British Power Boat Co. Ltd.  The company was formed 30 September 1927 to use R Kemp's Hythe Boatyard which Hubert-Scott Paine had purchased in the same year.   The British Power Boat Company became a limited liability company in June 1938 and was liquidated in 1947. In 1989 the site was occupied by Dreamland Electric Blanket Company. The photographer is looking across a grass field to a large double pitched corrugated asbestos roofed building with a line of rooflights. Attached to the side of this building is a single pitch corrugated asbestos roofed building with a glazed side to it. A similar pair of buildings are on the right, partially hidden by gorse bushes.  A vertical format negative.
