First production Wellington Mk.III, serial P9238 fitted with Hercules XI engines and Rotol C/S propellers, as well as a mock-up of the four-gun Nash & Thompson FN.4 tail turret, which was fitted to subsequent production examples in lieu of the two-gun FN.5. The front turret remained the FN.5 but it's unarmed in this photo. Arrived at A&AEE in March 1941, the background obviously attacked by the censor, or its' just another foggy day in England...
