Summary

Description

'Q' Turret, Lion: thick front armour-plate pierced at junction with roof-plate (photograph taken after the plate had been removed and placed on deck)
Photo: from The Fighting at Jutland

Note that the turret roof is generally described as having been blown off by the propellant explosion, rather than lifted off or "removed and placed on deck". It's also doubtful if the ship was equipped for such a heavy lift unaided.
