The Historic Dockyard in Portsmouth, UK is home to the National Museum of the Royal Navy, the HMS Warrior, the HMS Victory, the Royal Navy Submarine Museum as well as many other displays. Definitely worth a visit if you are into old ships and the navy.
Not much story here, just pics. I took pictures of the information signs in many places. Sorry that they are a little jumbled, I didn't have time to organize them in any useful way, but I cannot imagine many people will be interested in these pics. Posts without a story are not that interesting.
The great Warrior is an icon today as much as it was one hundred and fifty years ago during the Age of Steam. The largest and fastest of all Royal Navy ships, HMS Warrior’s fame worldwide made her the jewel in the crown

The rats were used to let you know when the fumes were too high. Not sure if they could tell you in time.
