Thanks for the information - the location ties up with thelittle info I have but the date was not mentioned so this is a great help.

I was indeed lucky to be custodian of these photos and I am forwarding copies to the RANM at Nowra and to RNM Yeovalton for their records.

The photographer was T E G Bowden who once resided at 37 Lea Rd Heaton Moor Stockport and who was obviously a RN Naval officer. Any details about him from anybody would be appreciated. I have many shots of he and his brother officers which I will post in due course.

Kindest regards
John Parker
