A panoramic view composed of two prints measuring 458 x 183 mm. Photographer unknown, possibly R.A. Lanham. The view, taken from a small rise, looks across a park towards the town with the fort at the left of the photographs, and wooden hills in the distance. Fort Jameson, situated near the Nyasaland border, was made the headquarters of the British South Africa Company's north-east Rhodesia administration in 1899.
