HMS Rochfort was a 74-gun third rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, launched on 6 August 1814 at Milford Haven. She was designed by the French émigré Jean-Louis Barrallier, and was the only ship built to her draught.[1] A second ship, Sandwich, was cancelled in 1811 before construction could be completed.Template:Sfnp
