        History

        The TRINCOMALEE was a frigate built in Bombay for the Royal Navy and launched in 1817, too late to serve in the Napoleonic Wars and was placed in ordinary (reserve). She was brought back into service in the 1840s whereupon she was despatched to American waters and was mainly assigned to anti-slavery patrols; in 1877 she was moved to Southampton as a drill ship; sold in 1897 to be broken up; saved and purchased as a youth training ship and renamed the FOUDROYANT; used as a store ship during World War Two; restored by the Foudroyant Trust; on display in Hartlepool, now renamed as HMS TRINCOMALEE.
