Hong Kong harbour looking eastwards towards the Lyemun gap entrance. The presence of the aircraft carrier HMS Hermes, alongside the Royal Navy shore base at HMS Tamar, with a 3-funnel County-class heavy cruiser and the submarine depot ship HMS Medway at moorings in the harbour, dates this photograph to between 1930 and 1937
