Nice to see here another of this special "turret deck" steamers built by shipyard of William Doxford & Sons, naval architect was Arthur Haver. The Scotland-based Clan Line, which traded globally in cargos such as foodstuffs, timber, metals, manufactured goods, case oil, jute, tea, nitrates, and general cargo, used 30 of this special type of ship for those purposes.
