I HAVE FOR SALE  A POSTCARD OF THE H M NAVY SUBMARINE NO 5 1903

NUMBER 5

THERE IS WRITING ON THE BACK OF THE POST CARD

Holland No.5 submarine - a remarkable piece of our naval heritage.

She was the first submarine to actually be commissioned in the Royal Navy, on the 19th January 1903 at the same time as Holland No.3. At this time the Holland's No.1, 2 and 4 were still being reworked. The Holland class of submarine rapidly become obsolete and in 1912 Holland 5 was destined for destruction and was being towed to Sheerness when she foundered and sunk at her present location 6 miles SE of the Royal Sovereign Lighthouse, Sussex, England.

The wreck remained undiscovered (although not undisturbed) until 1995 when she was found by chance by Kent diver, Gerry Dowd. Mr Dowd informed submarine expert Dr Innes McCartney of the find in 2001 and he made his first exploration of the site in the same year. The Holland No.5 was protected under the Protection of Wrecks Act (1973) in 2005. In 2011 the Holland No.5 was added to the Heritage at Risk Register by English Heritage.  Sara Hasan, the NAS Administrator and Diver, currently has a survey licence to record the site.
