About this work

Imagery of life aboard ship, in this case HMS Northumberland in the North Atlantic and North Sea.
As a Type 23 frigate (also known as the Duke class), HMS Northumberland was originally designed to carry out anti-submarine operations in the North Atlantic. Today, this versatile ship carries out a wide variety of maritime security operations, including counter-piracy, escort duties and boarding operations.
As the name suggests, HMS Northumberland maintains close ties with the North East of England. She was built by the Swan Hunter shipyard in Tyne and Wear and is affiliated with the county of Northumberland.
