HMS Captivity

HMS Captivity

Two ships of the Royal Navy have borne the name HMS "Captivity". In both cases they were old ships that had been renamed after their conversion to prison ships:

*HMS "Captivity" was a former 64-gun third rate launched in 1772 as HMS "Monmouth". She became a prison ship and was renamed HMS "Captivity" in 1796. She was broken up in 1816.
*HMS "Captivity" was a former 74-gun third rate launched in 1786 as HMS "Bellerophon". She became a prison ship in 1815 and was renamed HMS "Captivity" in 1824. She was sold in 1836.
