Wrong guns Bombhead. The Ark had the 4.5" twin mountings UD Mk. III (a drawing of which is on the HMS Scylla HMS Scylla, and not the guns here which are the twin 4" Mk.XIX.
Any way a good start, and I know you will do the grand old lady justice.

It looks beautiful, but was the Type 72 beacon already in service by that early year?!
