Full title reads: "Scotland. Once the pride of the German Fleet ... the Prince Regent Luitpold, last of the scuttled Grand Fleet, towed upside down from Scapa to the Scrap Yard!"
Scotland.
LS of the hull of the German warship Prince Regent Luitpold floating upside down. A couple of tugs are nearby. The ship was deliberately sunk by the Germans during WW1 at Scapa Flow. The hull is towed to a scrap yard to be salvaged. A shack has been built on the keel to accommodate the crew. The boat is going under the Forth Bridge. (We don't see the bridge).
