A port side view, taken from well ahead of the beam, of the cargo liner New Zealand Star (1935) entering the King George V Dock from the entrance lock from Gallions Reach, Woolwich, London. She is in tow bound in for the Royal Victoria Dock and her stern is obscured by the bascule bridge and dockside buildings. Alongside the quay on the right, seen from off her port broadside just abaft the beam, is the tug Sun XXIV (1962).
