Scope and Content
Photograph of a few labourers (all unidentified) at the submarine works yard at Barnet. During World War One, the Royal Russian Navy contracted with a Seattle-based company to build submarines for Russia, but American neutrality in the war prevented the subs from being built in the United States. Instead, the company operated a facility at Barnet to complete the contract.
