A slightly distant starboard bow view, taken from across the quayside wide off the bow, of the 4-masted barque Pamir (1905) berthed at Penarth with the 4 masted barque Passat (1911) berthed astern of her. All of their sails have been removed and both ships are in use as grain storage hulks on charter to the British Ministry of Food. A bucket dredger is alongside the quay and partially obscured by it, on the right of the negative. Vertical format.
