TERRA NOVA leaving Cardiff, 1910, glass negative
The British Antarctic Expedition ship TERRA NOVA, West side of Bute East Dock, Cardiff, 15 June 1910, accompanied by tug BANTAM COCK.
S.Y. TERRA NOVA. Auxiliary barque of 764 tons, was built by Messrs Alexander Stephens and Sons, Dundee in 1884 for the whaling trade. Although nearly thirty years old at the time of Captain Scott's expedition, she was chosen for it because of her suitability for work in the Antarctic ice. Her beams were fourteen ins thick, her bows were nine feet of solid wood, and her stem was sheathed with iron plating.
