HMS Ramillies was a 74-gun third rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, launched on 15 April 1763 at Chatham Dockyard.

[1] Ramillies took part in the action of 9 August 1780, when a convoy she was escorting fell prey to a Spanish squadron.

Ramillies was badly damaged in a violent storm of 1782, and was finally abandoned and burned on 21 September 1782.

The exhausted crew were rescued by nearby merchantmen, and the last man, Captain Sylverius Moriarty,[4] set her on fire as he left.

In 1795 a set of four coloured mezzotints were engraved and published by Jukes from his shop at No.10 Howland Street.
