Maritime History
HMS Belvidera was a 36-gun Apollo-class frigate of the Royal Navy built in Deptford Dockyard in 1809. She saw action in the Napoleonic Wars and the War of 1812 and continued a busy career at sea into the middle of the 19th century. In 1846 she was reduced to harbour service, in 1860 she became a receiving ship, and she was finally disposed of in 1906.
