HMS Liverpool (1814)

The third HMS Liverpool was an Endymion-class fourth-rate frigate of 1247 tons and armed with 50 guns. She was launched at Woolwich on 21 February 1814, after a long absence, a "Liverpool" was finally commissioned into the Royal Navy once again.

Her first commission was very brief, though. She served two years at the Cape Station before returning to Deptford to be paid off on the 3 April 1816.

In 1818, the "Liverpool" was re-commissioned and joined the East Indies Station. In 1819, "Liverpool" took part in an expedition against Persian Gulf and pirates at Ras-al-Khyma. The operation lasted from the 4th-8 December and was a resounding success for the Royal Navy. The capture and destruction of the fortifications and ships in the port was a massive blow for the Gulf Pirates. The Royal Navy suffered no casualties during the action, a considerable achievement in those times.

The ship carried on serving in the East Indies Station, until she was paid off at Bombay in January 1822.
