HMS Sutherland arrives on the Mersey

The Royal Navy frigate HMS Sutherland (F81) arrived on the River Mersey today for a 3 day visit. I dont think that she will be open to the public tho, previous RN visits have been open to the public.

HMS Sutherland is a type 23 Duke class frigate and is the 3rd RN vessel to bear the name.
