A busy scene on the beach at Accra with a large number of African labourers digging in heaps of sand and waggons being loaded up with boxes. At the water's edge a large pipeline is visible, and there are large ships out to sea in the distance. The caption to another image taken at the same location describes it as outside Swanzy's Motor Transport Dept. Captioned in the negative: Accra harbour [..26] 1919.
