SCANNED COPIES: Photographs of H. M. S. Conway being towed and aground in 1953.

The H. M. S. Conway was a naval training school , founded in 1859 and housed for most of its life aboard a ninecentury wooden battleship. The ship was originally docked on the Mersey near Liverpool, then moved to the Menai Strait during World War II. While being towed back to Birkenhead for a refit in 1953, she ran aground and was wrecked, and later burned down. The school moved to purpose-built premises on the Isle of Anglesey where it continued for another 20 years.
