Chatham historic dockyard, 2012: Small craft and submarines

27 photos of the former royal dockyard. It built and maintained Royal navy warships for 400 years, from the age of sail to the age of the submarine until closure in 1984. It occupies an 80 acre site, on which many buildings date from the 18th century. Nelson's Victory was built here in 1765. The last Royal Navy warship built at Chatham was the submarine Ocelot (1964), now preserved in the dockyard
