The Peregrine Galley was built in 1700 at Depfond on the Thames, a famous shipyard for building warships. In 1749, she was converted into a sloop of war, equipped with 16 cannons, to serve in the British Navy. This ship, used for military and commercial missions, was an important player in the British Navy of the 18th century. In 1761, during a mission to Lisbon, the ship was lost at sea and never reached its destination.
