Description
This shows the stern of a newly completed ship. A feature if the ships is a pair of 'goal post' mast serving as lifting gear. Ships are mounted on bogeys on a track. Down this shipway they are launched. Launching is an official ceremony performed in the presence of a minister of the church. A section of Tullock's iron works is shown in the background.
