21 inch Triple Deck Torpedo Tubes

from North East Museums

• Howard Dickins said:

  Land based torpedo tubes? Or are they just being stored there before being fitted on a ship?

• Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums said:

  They might have been there for torpedo trials. We recently added an image of a torpedo being fired from a similar spot www.flickr.com/photos/twm_news/18855229355/in/dateposted/.

• optimal chicken said:

  These are great! I wonder if any old strays are still embedded in the mud on the opposite side?? I recognised the torpedo tubes immediately. Although updated, modern tubes use an almost identical discharge system. Armstrongs was a world leader.

Start today, make no delay!

  Well done

• Carol Maddock said:

  Sack the sign writer! MacLean on every product and sign, and he (almost certainly, he) manages McLeans.

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  Carol Maddock Huh! Is this part of the MacMetoo movement, blaming the men for everything???

• Carol Maddock said:

  National Library of Ireland on The Commons No, it's the McLeanOut movement!

• BultacoFan said:

  A testimonial letter (which I'm sure was not made up at all by the ad company!!) is included in one of the ads. The date looks to be 3/10/26 or 5/10/26.

Middle Harbour, Sydney, New South Wales

  Using Google Earth 3D (wow!), I figured out this is from Northbridge, looking NE towards Seaforth and Manly. Then it was quite easy to find out about 'Clavering' (now Dalwood Home) and the hulk ships in Powder Hulk Bay, using this history of Seaforth - www.manly.nsw.gov.au/IgnitionSuite/uploads/docs/History%2... . A construction date of the house should be the date of this photo.
