[?Simon's Bay], 1857 - 1879

 Item
Reference Code: GBR/0115/RCS/Y3059A/70

Scope and Contents

139 x 69 mm. A view looking across a bay with a settlement on the farther side and a headland beyond. With two sailing boats moored in the bay and wooden frameworks (?for drying fishing nets) in the foreground. A note on the reverse in C.W. Busk's hand adds: 'Don't remember this: think it Simon's Town [i.e. Simonstad]'. This appears to be correct and the headland is similar to those north of the town.
