EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, the imposing figure of HMS Forth, a Royal Navy cruiser, dominates the scene at Devonport Harbour in 1914. The mighty warship, with its distinctive funnel and intricate rigging, is a testament to the engineering prowess of the British Navy during the early 20th century. Seven submarines, nestled alongside HMS Forth, add an intriguing layer to the image. Their sleek silhouettes, partially hidden by the cruiser's massive shadow, hint at the clandestine nature of their operations. This assembly of submarines and cruiser underscores the importance of Devonport as a key naval base during this period. The calm waters of the harbour reflect the serene atmosphere, but the presence of these warships serves as a stark reminder of the impending conflict. The tranquility is deceptive, as the naval vessels are poised and ready for action, their guns trained on the horizon. Devonport, with its rich maritime history, has been a vital naval base since the 16th century. This photograph captures a moment in time when the harbour was bustling with activity, as the Royal Navy prepared for the challenges of the First World War. The image stands as a testament to the enduring strength and resilience of the British Navy, and the crucial role it played in defending the nation during times of conflict. This photograph, taken by Mary Evans / Pharcide, offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the grandeur and significance of the naval vessels that once graced the waters of Devonport Harbour.
