HMS Severn: A British Monitor in Action during the First World War This evocative photograph captures the British monitor HMS Severn in the throes of war, circa 1915. The monitor, a type of small, shallow-draft warship, was primarily designed for coastal defense and mine warfare. In this image, the HMS Severn is seen with her 6-inch guns prominently displayed, ready for action. The First World War brought about a significant increase in the demand for naval power, and monitors like the HMS Severn played a crucial role in protecting the British coastline and supporting the Royal Navy's larger vessels. The monitor's shallow draft allowed it to navigate shallow waters, making it an ideal choice for patrolling the English Channel and the North Sea. The 6-inch guns, visible in this photograph, were a common armament for monitors during the First World War. These powerful guns could fire a projectile up to 12,000 yards (11,000 meters) and were effective against both surface targets and submarines. The HMS Severn and her sister ships were instrumental in the defense of the British Isles, sinking several enemy submarines and providing fire support to troops on the ground. This photograph is a testament to the bravery and determination of the British sailors who served aboard the HMS Severn and other monitors during the First World War. The ship's powerful guns and shallow draft made it a formidable presence on the water, and its service in the conflict helped to safeguard the British coastline and protect the nation from enemy attack.
