Description

*British, WW1, HM Submarine L24 – Original Photograph*

Original Photograph of an article about WW1 Submarine L24, titled " Submarine L24 Sunk in Channel with Crew of 43,10th January 1924."

"Never bronze, nor slab of stone,
May their sepulchre denote,
O'er their burial place alone,
Shall the shifting seaweed float.

Not for them the quiet grave
Underneath the daisied turf,
They sleep beneath the surging wave
They lie beneath the ceaseless surf

And each idle wave that breaks
Henceforth on each stormy shore
Shall be nobler for their sakes,
Shall be holy evermore."

This photograph originally formed part of the Lou Britton British Submarine Collection, which was acquired by the Royal Navy Submarine Museum, Gosport in 2007.

Approximate Dimensions: 20.4cm x 13cm

HMS L24 was an L-class submarine built by Vickers at Barrow-in-Furness for the Royal Navy during World War I, though it was completed only after the war. The L-class, an enlarged and improved version of the E-class, measured about 239 feet long with a beam of 23.5 feet and a draft of 13.3 feet, displacing 914 long tons on the surface and 1,089 long tons submerged. Powered by twin 1,200 bhp diesel engines and 600 hp electric motors, they reached speeds of 17 knots on the surface and 10.5 knots underwater, and were armed with four 21-inch torpedo tubes (plus reloads) and a 4-inch deck gun.

Launched on 19 February 1919, HMS L24 was ultimately sunk with all hands in a collision with the battleship Resolution during an exercise off Portland Bill on 10 January 1924. Her wreck, located at a depth of 52 meters, still shows signs of a hard dive as she attempted to evade impact. The site is protected under the Protection of Military Remains Act, and a memorial stands at St Ann's Church in HMNB Portsmouth.
