HMS Bristol (1910) was the name-ship of the Bristol-class of light cruiser of the Royal Navy, displacing 4,800 tons,with a crew of 376, and capable of 27 knots. She was launched in 1910, and carried two 6" and ten 4" guns.
Later in the 20th century, the name was applied to the first of the Type 82 class. These were to have escorted a new generation of large aircraft carriers to be built for the Royal Navy, cancelled in the 1966 defence review. With the cancellation of the ships they were meant to escort, only one type 82 was ever built, HMS Bristol (D82). The ship was launched in 1973.
