This authentic 1970s colour photograph captures the historic Mayflower Steps at the Barbican in Plymouth, Devon, in 1977. The image provides a factual record of the city’s maritime tourism, featuring a group of visitors in period attire—including flared denim and colourful knitwear—gathering on the stone pier. Docked alongside the steps is the passenger excursion boat Lady Elizabeth, a blue-hulled vessel with traditional wooden brightwork. The background documents the industrial and naval character of Sutton Pool, with various smaller watercraft and harbour infrastructure visible under a clear sky. As a self-contained archival record, this shot serves as an essential resource for local historians and collectors of vintage West Country coastal photography.
