Wikipedia

HMS Ajax was a 74-gun third rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, launched on 2 May 1809 at Blackwall.

She was converted to a blockship with screw propulsion for coastal defense (also called 'steam-guard-ships') in 1846.

The conversion process involved removing her copper, ballast and some of the bulkheads, and cutting her down in the shape of a blockship.

She was broken up in 1864.
