HMS Wellington, Maritime museum ship on Victoria Embankment, England

The HQS Wellington, a Grimsby-class sloop measuring 266 feet in length, stands permanently moored on the River Thames at Victoria Embankment.

Built in 1934, this vessel escorted over 103 Atlantic convoys during World War II and participated in the evacuation of Allied troops from Le Havre.

The ship serves as headquarters for the Honourable Company of Master Mariners and contains maritime artifacts, paintings, and model collections representing British naval heritage.

The vessel functions as an event venue for weddings, conferences, and corporate functions, with a dedicated boardroom available for professional meetings.

A grand wooden staircase from the Isle of Man ferry SS Viper was integrated into the ship during its 1948 conversion into a floating livery hall.
