HMS Mary Rose

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nine ships of the Royal Navy have been named Mary Rose. The first is thought to have been named after Mary Tudor, sister of King Henry VIII of England, and the rose, the symbol of the Tudor dynasty. Later Mary Roses are named after the first.

  1. The first Mary Rose, launched in 1510, was a carrack of 60 to 90 guns. She sank in a battle against the French in the Solent in 1545. She was raised in 1982 and is preserved in Portsmouth.
  2. The second Mary Rose, launched in 1556, was a 39-gun galleon. She participated in the battles against the Spanish Armada in 1588, was rebuilt in 1589 and broken up in 1618.
  3. The third Mary Rose, built at Deptford in 1623, was a 26-gun ship.
  4. The fourth Mary Rose was a 32-gun ship, possibly a hired merchant vessel, in service from 1650–1654.
  5. The fifth Mary Rose, launched in 1654 as Maidstone, was a fourth-rate frigate, renamed after the Restoration. She fought in the Anglo-Dutch Wars and the War of the Grand Alliance and was captured by the French in 1691.
  6. The sixth Mary Rose was a French 4-gun brig captured in 1799 off Acre and sold in 1801.
  7. The seventh Mary Rose, launched in 1915, was an Admiralty "M" class destroyer. She served in World War I, fought at the battle of Jutland and was sunk on 17 October 1917 by the German cruisers Brummer and Bremse.
  8. The eighth Mary Rose was a tender purchased in 1918 and sold in 1922.
  9. The ninth Mary Rose (J360), launched in 1943, was an Algerine class minesweeper. She served in World War II and was broken up in 1957.
