HMS Queen Charlotte (1810)

HMS Queen Charlotte (1810)

HMS "Queen Charlotte" was a 104-gun First rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, launched on 17 July 1810 at Deptford. She was built to the lines of Sir Edward Hunt's HMS|Royal George|1788|2 as a replacement for the first HMS "Queen Charlotte" which had been lost by accident on 17 March 1800.

She was Lord Exmouth's flagship during the Bombardment of Algiers in 1816.

The "Queen Charlotte" was converted to serve as a training ship in 1859 and renamed HMS "Excellent". She was eventually sold out of the service to break up in 1892.
