Monitor HMS 33 Gallipoli and WW I

HMS 33 by Geoff W. Sutton 2017
HMS 33 is the only British war ship from the 1915 Gallipoli Campaign. As you enter the ship at the Historic Dockyard, you experience a sight and sound experience of war--including the perspectives of those on board.


Following the audio-visual presentation, there's opportunity to inspect the insides and topside, which includes some re-creations of shiplife.









The ship is a small, spartan war machine- home to 72 crew for more than three years.
































The tour is worth including in a visit to the Historic Dockyards in Portsmouth.
