HMS Holland 1, Submarine museum ship in Gosport, England.

The Holland 1 submarine measures 19.46 meters in length and represents the first submarine design commissioned for the Royal Navy in 1901.

After sinking near Eddystone Lighthouse in 1913 during its final journey to a scrapyard, the vessel remained underwater until its recovery in 1982.

The submarine demonstrates early 20th century British naval engineering through its preserved compartments, control systems, and original battery configuration.

The submarine resides in a climate-controlled building at the Royal Navy Submarine Museum, which opens Wednesday through Sunday from 10:00 to 16:30.

The recovered lead batteries from this submarine, after cleaning and recharging in 1982, maintained their functionality despite spending 69 years underwater.

Length: 19.46 m
