Description

Labelled as 'HMS Dunedin' on the negative, but appears to be HMS Diomede (D92) based on the prancing horse on the turret. In 1925 she was transferred to the New Zealand Division of the Royal Navy at Devonport where she served until 1935, apart from a refit in 1929-1930. In 1931 she rendered assistance to the town of Napier after the devastating Hawke's Bay earthquake, supplying medical personnel, equipment, guards and firemen, along with her sister ship Dunedin.
