Looks like one of the Leander frigates in dry dock.

Pretty sure that is the Leander Class Frigate HMS Euryalus in dry dock. She did a short refit on the Tyne and was also the adopted ship of South Shields.

jbryce1437 No, she's definitely a Rothesay class but I can't make out the deck code to work out which one

Its HMS Yarmouth

she came in for repairs after collision off Iceland during "cod war".
The other ships were BP Fern -no4 drydock, MV Penelope Everard, Shell hamble, and the drill ship Dalkieth.
