'William Miles' (1808)

Scale: 1:48. A plan showing the body plan with half stern board outline, sheer lines with some inboard detail, and the longitudinal half-breadth for 'William Miles' (1808), a 123ft, three-masted barque-rigged merchant ship.

Note the additional gun ports along the broadside, which may reflect the dangers of plying between Bristol and the West Indies during the Napoleonic Wars.
