HMS President with St Paul’s Cathedral in background.
LAST YEAR, Britain at War reported the threat to HMS President, one of only three British Great War warships which still survive. The submarine hunter had been moved to Chatham from her wellknown London berth while her home of 90 years was redeveloped and it initially seemed unlikely she would find a new home after the HMS President Preservation Trust sadly failed to raise the money needed after an application to the Heritage Lottery Fund was unsuccessful.
