HMS Deptford was a 50-gun fourth-rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, launched at Woolwich Dockyard in 1687.[1]
She underwent her first rebuild at Woolwich in 1700 as a fourth rate of between 46 and 54 guns.[2] Her second rebuild took place at Portsmouth Dockyard, where she was reconstructed as a 50-gun fourth rate to the 1706 Establishment and relaunched on 19 June 1719.[3]
She was captained in 1710 by Sir Tancred Robinson.[4]
Deptford was sold out of the navy c.1725.[3]
