Irish Merchant Ship, Cape Town

An image of the ‘Irish Plane’ docked at Cape Town in South Africa. The ‘Irish Plane’ was built in 1949 by William Gray & Company in Hartlepool, England, for Irish Shipping Limited. This state-owned company was established in 1941, soon after the outbreak of the Second World War with the object of providing the ships necessary to supply Ireland’s import needs. The 'Irish Plane' served only a short number of years with the Irish Shipping company. It was sold to a Pakistani shipping firm in January 1960 and was eventually scrapped in Karachi in 1971

A view of the exterior of St. Mary's Cathedral in Cape Town, South Africa. Consecrated in April 1851, it is the oldest Catholic cathedral in the country. The photograph probably shows a religious ceremony celebrating the centenary of the cathedral's foundation.
