Pictures from ceremony to mark anniversary of Battle of Trafalgar

A poignant ceremony was held on board HMS Victory to mark the 211th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar - a battle which changed the course of our history as a nation.

The ceremony on board Victory is also an act of remembrance rather than just a celebration of victory, remembering the loss of the country’s greatest ever naval leader and the lives of men on both sides who perished.
