Aerial view of Boyden Observatory site from the north-west. The 60-inch enclosure is being constructed; the turret walls are unclad but a small section of the roofing material is in place. The shrouded telescope can be seen inside. The two ancillary buildings have not been built yet. The electrical supply network can be clearly seen. In the north-east, a short distance into the veldt from the Bruce enclosure, is a light-coloured conical tent. The formal garden to the west of the Residence is laid out. The garage does not have a side-building to its north. There are no trees, only bushes, on the site. PB13_0006 and PB13_0019 are derivatives. PB13_0006 has a slightly sepia-like tint. n/a.
