GUEST,Teribus Origins: Jenny Wren Bride (21) RE: Origins: Jenny Wren Bride 06 Jan 19


Understood Mick, I was responding to the thread title.

Cyril Tawney makes reference to "The Pusser built Bride" which included the mention of the "Hood" (No other RN ship in commission that would suit the rhyme). In which case the remarks I have made still stand although the time frame only be pushed back to between 1929 and 1936 when "Hood" was in Portsmouth Dockyard in refit and in service in the Home Fleet. Prior to that HMS Hood was stationed:

1920 Commissioned
1921 - 1922 Mediterranean
1923 - 1924 World Cruise
1925 - 1927 Mediterranean
1928 - 1929 Gibraltar Dockyard for repair after collision with HMS Renown.
1929 - 1936 Portsmouth and Home Fleet
1937 - 1939 Mediterranean
