Wonder how history would have been written if HMS Victory had missed the Battle of Trafalgar as told in this article....

Agreed.. The problem of the dock gates being too narrow has been widely documented but I never thought to think until now, how history would have been writted had the old girl not been able to pass through those gates thereby missing the most iconic battle she was involved in. Does give food for though...
