No. 5 Dry Dock, Portsmouth Dockyard, Hampshire.

Looking east along No. 5 Dry Dock in Portsmouth Dockyard from the top of its sealed entrance showing the badly damaged floor of the dock near the caisson. The damage is probably the result of a bomb hit during a 1941 air raid. There are three rows of keel blocks laid out in the dock beyond the damage.
