Old Photograph HMS Iron Duke Firth of Forth Scotland

Old photograph of HMS Iron Duke in the Firth of Forth near Burntisland, Fife, Scotland. HMS Iron Duke was a dreadnought battleship of the Royal Navy, the lead ship of her class, named in honour of Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington. She was built by Portsmouth Dockyard in England, and her keel laid in January 1912. Iron Duke served as the flagship of the Grand Fleet during the First World War, including at the Battle of Jutland. There, she inflicted significant damage on the German battleship SMS König early in the main fleet action. In January 1917, she was relieved as fleet flagship. After the war, Iron Duke operated in the Mediterranean as the flagship of the Mediterranean Fleet. She participated in both the Allied intervention in the Russian Civil War in the Black Sea and the Greco-Turkish War. She also assisted in the evacuation of refugees from Smyrna. In 1926, she was assigned to the Atlantic Fleet, where she served as a training ship. Iron Duke remained in the Royal Navy inventory until March 1946, when she was sold for scrapping to Metal Industries. In September 1948, she was re-sold and moved to Glasgow, arriving on 30 November 1948, and subsequently broken up for scrap. Iron Duke‍ '​s bell is on display at Winchester Cathedral.
