Description: | original art: drawing. This is the original ex-naval vessel allocated as a hospital ship to the (merchant) Seamen's Hospital Society in 1821, which was moored between Greenwich and Deptford and subsequently replaced by the 'Dreadnought' and Caledonian -the latter renamed 'Dreadnought'. In 1870 the operation moved ashore into the former infirmary of Greenwich Hospital (which finally closed as a residential naval almshouse in 1869), today the Dreadnought Building of the University of Greenwich.[PvdM 2/12]
