HMS CrescentAt the outbreak of the war H.M.S Crescent served in the 10th Cruiser Squadron, enforcing the blockade by examining neutral shipping in the North Sea. She was already quite an old ship, having been launched in Portsmouth back in 1892, so in February 1915 she was withdrawn from seagoing service, had her armament removed and thereafter served as a submarine depot ship in Scotland.
