The general cargo ship Rundal (1930) and the general cargo coaster Diana (1956) in the Canada Dock, Surrey Docks, London.

A slightly distant port quarter view, taken from very fine off the stern, of the general cargo ship Rundal (1930) alongside A-F Sheds in Canada Dock, Surrey Docks, London. There are lighters round her and the adjacent quayside is stacked with sawn timber. The nearest lighter is named Pompey. In the left background and seen from off her port bow is the general cargo coaster Diana (1956). She has her starboard anchor touching the water and the tall timbers used to restrain her deck cargo are still in place. She also has lighters around her.
