Portsmouth - HMS Victory

A short distance north of the landing stage for ferries to the Isle of Wight, the visitor will pass the gateway to the old docks in Portsmouth harbor. This is the site of Lord Nelson's flagship, which was built in 1765 and is almost 197ft/60m long, with five decks and 104 cannons. It was lifted from the sea in 1921 and restored. In his hour of victory at the Battle of Trafalgar (1805), barely 20 minutes after he had penetrated the French lines, Vice-Admiral Nelson was fatally wounded and died in the cockpit of his legendary ship, "HMS Victory".
