IMMORTALITE Class Wooden Screw Frigates HMS Immortalite, HMS Bristol, HMS Glasgow, HMS Newcastle, and HMS Undaundted. The original design of these frigates was by Sir William Symonds who was the urveyor of the Royal navy between 1832 to 1848. HMS Immortalite was considered to be the fastest wooden ship under sial at the time. The armament for these ships consisted of Thirty 8 inch Muzzle Loading SB Guns, and twenty 32 pdr ML SB, and one 68 pdr ML SB guns but these armaments were reduced during the careers with HMS Bristol, Immortalite and HMS Glasgow ending up with 28 guns, and HMS Undaunted with 31 guns.
