HMS Thisbe was a 46-gun modified {{sclass-|Leda|frigate|0}} fifth-rate frigate built for the Royal Navy during the 1820s. The ship was never commissioned and spent her entire career in reserve or on third-line duties. She was converted into a depot ship in 1850 and then into a floating church in 1863. Thisbe was replaced by a shore-based establishment, All Souls Chapel, in 1891 and sold for scrap the following year.

Description

Thisbe had a length at the gundeck of {{convert|151|ft|9|in|m|1}} and {{convert|127|ft|m|1}} at the keel. She had a beam of {{convert|40|ft|4|in|m|1}}, a draught of {{convert|15|ft|4|in|m|1}} and a depth of hold of {{convert|12|ft|9|in|m|1}}. The ship's tonnage was 1082 {{fraction|67|94}} tons burthen.^[1] The modified Leda-class frigates were armed with twenty-eight 18-pounder cannon on her gundeck, fourteen 32-pounder carronades on her quarterdeck and a pair of 9-pounder cannon and two more 32-pounder carronades in forecastle. The ship had a crew of 315 officers and ratings.^[2]

Construction and career

Thisbe, the second ship of her name to serve in the Royal Navy,^[3] was ordered on 23 July 1817, laid down in August 1820 at Pembroke Dockyard, Wales, and launched on 9 September 1824.^[4] She was completed for ordinary at Plymouth Dockyard on 5 October 1824 and the ship was roofed over from the mainmast forward. Thisbe was converted for service as a depot ship from 1850–63 and was loaned to the Missions to Seamen on 13 August of that year as a floating church;^[1] Lord Bute paid for the necessary modifications. The ship spent almost the next 30 years berthed at the Bute West Dock in Cardiff.^[5] Thisbe was taken out of service in 1891 and sold to W. H. Caple for £1,005 on 11 August 1892.^[1] All Souls Chapel was built nearby in 1892 as a replacement.

Another redundant Leda-class frigate, HMS Hamadryad, was also moored in Cardiff and used as a hospital ship from 1866 to 1905.
