Item: Three Masted Barque, Penzance Dock.
Description: A view of Penzance harbour towards the town, with a three masted barque, possibly the 'Glenfarg of Dundee' in the foreground. The photograph pre-dates the Little Western Co's transit sheds, which were built to the left by 1886, but is after November 1884 when the Dock was opened. The vessel is not the Lord Kinnaird as she has extra (Royal) yards at the top of her masts. The 'Glenfarg of Dundee' discharged grain in Penzance in July 1885.
