Description: | Scale: 1:16. A model of the starboard side of the stern of HMS Hibernia (1804) made entirely in wood with metal fittings and painted in realistic colours. The hull is painted black externally with the three lower gundecks picked out in a creamy-white horizontal line. The gunports of which there are thirteen are painted red on the inside edge. The stern galleries which show the improved round construction are on three levels and consist of fourteen glazed panels some of which are painted on a solid background whilst others are missing, all of which are separated by three horizontal galleries. At the stern on the centreline just above the stern post is a half section of the rudder head housing. Internally the model is painted a creamy white throughout and includes details of the deck beams, pillars, hanging and lodging knees together with five flat sheets of wood illustrating deck planking.
