HMS Essex (1679)

HMS Essex (1679)

HMS "Essex" was a 70-gun third rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, launched at Blackwall in 1679.

She was rebuilt at Rotherhithe in 1700, retaining her 70-gun armament. She underwent a second rebuild in 1713, and on 20 May 1736 she was ordered to be taken to pieces and rebuilt at Woolwich as a 70-gun third rate to the 1733 proposals of the 1719 Establishment. She was relaunched on 21 February 1740.

"Essex" was wrecked in 1759.
