A "booby trap" in Portsmouth Dockyard, Hampshire
The subject of this negative (and negative number N26415) is given in the Portsmouth Dockyard Negative Register as "Booby trap". The precise location in the dockyard is unknown but is believed to be near the west side of No. 3 Basin. The only common denominator of these two negatives is the small box, marked with an X, on the platform in the foreground, at the top of a small flight of steps. Vertical format.
