T45 Steeple - Coming to Laird's
Cammell Laird - Builders of Great Ships (1959) - pp32, quotes a famous saying of the 1885-1900 era that "Laird's yard without a warship is like a church without a steeple".
Our prayers have been answered with the planned arrival of a Royal Navy T45 Destroyer this Winter. These warships have the most impressive Steeples in the Fleet. This will be the first of the six T45 Destroyers that will be having some planned power and propulsion upgrades.
