The interior of the Admiral Superintendent's office in No. 8 The Parade, Portsmouth Dockyard. This view is looking from his personal desk showing a conference table in the foreground and a fireplace on the right. Naval message pads and ash trays are on the conference table. The ash trays are made from brass shell cases fired on D-Day, the nearest being a 4.7" from the Faulknor, then a 4" from the Roberts and a 5.25" from the Black Prince. Around the walls are models of a T class submarine and a steam gun boat. A framed photograph of H.M. King George V and H.R.H. the Prince of Wales disembarking from the Victory is above the mantlepiece.
