Type 42 destroyer HMS Edinburgh, nick named "The Fortress Of The Sea" entering Portsmouth Harbour on the morning of March 28th 2013. The ship is entering harbour in 'Procedure Alpha' with the ships company lining the upper decks. There are also two pipers playing on the bridge roof, in front of the forward 909 radar dome.

Of the fourteen ships of her class built for the Royal Navy, Edinburgh was one of four 'stretched' type 42s, the other ten being shorter in length and beam, and was the only one fitted with a raised bulwark or 'garden wall' on her forecastle.
