HMS Bristol (1775)

HMS "Bristol" was a fourth-rate ship with 50 guns, launched in 1775. During the American War of Independence, she was Sir Peter Parker's flagship during the attack on Sullivan's Island on June 28, 1776 and was heavily damaged during the battle. Later in the war, she was stationed off Jamaica, and fought at the Battle of Cuddalore (1783). After 1794 she was used as a prison ship, and was broken up in 1810.
