Submarines at Lazaretto (HMS Talbot)8 viewsProbably U Class of the 10th Flotilla.
"In 1934 work commenced to tunnel into the sandstone (sic) rock face beneath the seawaters at Lazaretto. These tunnels were to form purpose built pens into which the submarines could enter for protection against air and surface attack. Due to the rising cost, however, politicians decided to abandon the work. Raids in 1942 caused substantial damage to the mess decks, sick bay, laundry, base cinema, wardrooms, stores and offices. On Friday the 13 February, parachute mines fell on the Island wrecking the submarine base barracks and killing three men."
"The lazaretto restoration forms part of Midi’s Euro 30 Million restoration programme."
