HMS Warspite (1666)

HMS Warspite (1666)

HMS "Warspite" was a 70-gun third rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, launched in 1666 at Blackwall Yard.Survey of London, volumes 43 and 44.] By 1685, she was mounting only 68 guns.

"Warspite" was rebuilt at Rotherhithe in 1702 as a 66-gun ship. She was rebuilt for a second time at Chatham, relaunching as a 70-gun ship to the 1719 Establishment on 30 June 1721 and renamed HMS "Edinburgh". On 14 May 1741 orders were issued for "Edinburgh" to be taken to pieces for her third and final rebuild, this time at Chatham Dockyard according to the 1741 proposals of the 1719 Establishment as a 64-gun ship. She was relaunched on 31 May 1744.

"Edinburgh" was broken up in 1771.
