HMS Norfolk was an 80-gun third rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy.

She was built at Southampton and launched on 28 March 1693, and was the first ship to bear the name.

The ship conducted a number of important duties throughout her long career.

She was then employed in the role of Plymouth guardship, before being attached to the Mediterranean Fleet and then to the West Indies, as reinforcement for that region, as well as performing as flagship of Rear-Admiral Sir John Balchen.

The Norfolk was rebuilt at Plymouth Dockyard from 1718 to 1728 to the dimensions of the 1719 Establishment.
