Summary
| Description |
English: The 1st Division of the
America and West Indies Station (
HMS Dragon,
HMS Danae and
HMS Despatch) proceeding to the
open water outside of the
barrier reef of the
Imperial fortress
colony of
Bermuda, the home base of the warships of the America and West Indies Station. The three
light cruisers are seen moving north-eastward from the Grassy Bay anchorage at the mouth of the
Great Sound, across the enclosed northern lagoon, towards the main shipping channel through the reef at Bermuda's East End, as they pass the boat dock at Clarence Cove, within the grounds of "Clarence Hill" (originally named "St. John's Hill" 'til renamed in 1822 in honour of Admiral of the Fleet Prince William, the
Duke of Clarence, who was later
King William IV),
Admiralty House, Bermuda, in 1931. The figurehead on the dock was that of
HMS Irresistible, which was flown by a
Fleet Air Arm
Wessex HU.5 helicopter from
RFA Resource from Admiralty House to the Keepyard at the Royal Naval Dockyard on 28 March, 1974, for display at the new
Bermuda Maritime Museum. It was subsequently moved to England with its place in the keepyard taken by a limestone replica.
