I doubt that the T21 scuttles could be opened but I can still remember having to lean out through the open scuttle of my cabin in HMS Gurkha to polish the brass surround.


I'm sure you did a fine job Allnightin!!

Here is a link to a fairly close up shot of Alacrity in 1987 which seems to confirm that they don't open.
