Aircraft Carrier?

Can someone identify this ship and where it was taken? I believe it dates from the late 40s or early 50s.

It came from the relative of someone who once served on HMS Gambia but also on the aircraft repair ship and light aircraft carrier, HMS Unicorn, but I don't think it is that ship. Maybe I'm wrong?
