HMS Trincomalee 1817

HMS Trincomalee is the oldest British warship afloat built in Bombay in 1817!

It represents the pinnacle of the ship restorer's craft (with thanks also going to it's being built of Malabar Teak, which loves salt water!) and visitors can now savour the unique atmosphere and experience of life on board the Classic British Frigate!

It's extensively but sympathetically refurbished offering a rich and authentic experience hard to beat on your family's history trip. From the mess deck through the orlop to the gun deck and sail array (yes, we've heard that joke too) there's a brilliant exploration to be had with the kids in a richly historic atmosphere.
