HMS 'President', Victoria Embankment, London

Launched in 1918 as HMS 'Saxifrage' before becoming HMS 'President' in 1922 when she was permanently moored on the River Thames as a Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve (later Royal Naval Reserve) drill ship. She was moved to Chatham in 2016 with the hope of preserving her but plans fell through and she was abandoned there in 2022.
