HMS Ark Royal is the Royal Navy's Flag Ship and it recently paid a visit to Liverpool . This picture was taken from across the River Mersey next to The Seacombe Ferry Terminal.
This UK Navy lady is pretty old (27 years) for a Navy ship Steve. I'm surprised she's still in service. Still an impressive appearance.
Good post mate.

Good shot of this great flagship Steve. I read she was built in 1978. The Sailor's Church (Church of Our Lady and Saint Nicholas)is a good inclusion in the picture.
The first Ark Royal built in 1578 for Sir Walter Raleigh, I am sure looked very different.
Nice post!
A very nice post, I love naval history and she holds a big part of the history of my time. I would love to have seen her in the port, so I enjoy these pictures.
Good post mate.
