HMS Cambria (shore establishment)
HMS ''Cambria'' is the lead Royal Naval Reserve unit in Wales. It is based at Sully near the Welsh capital, Cardiff.
==History==
HMS ''Cambria'' was established as the Royal Naval Reserve unit for South Wales in July 1947 and originally occupied buildings in Cardiff Docks. ''Cambria'' remained in Cardiff until 1980, when the redevelopment of the docks there precipitated a move to the former service married couples' accommodation at Sully, Vale of Glamorgan in the Vale of Glamorgan. The unit was granted freedom of the vale in 2012.
Over the years ''Cambria'', like many other RNR units, operated a number of seagoing ships; a motor minesweeper - the unit's first tender - was replaced in 1954 by the wooden-hulled minesweeper ''Brereton'', which gave way in turn to ''Crichton'' (1961-76); all of these were rechristened HMS ''St David''. In 1978 the unit acquired a converted trawler, which was again renamed ''St David''. The ship's final vessel, acquired in 1984, was the new minesweeper ''Waveney'', which was not renamed. ''Waveney'' remained with HMS ''Cambria'' until 1994, when a reorganisation of the RNR led to the abandonment of seagoing tenders.〔Davies J.D.

''Cambria'' is one of only three RNR units to have a satellite unit. The Swansea-Tawe Division, based at Swansea, began its life as a Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve Wireless unit in 1932. Having originally begun life with just one recruit, the unit had expanded to 48 members by 1970. The unit was briefly commissioned as the stone frigate HMS ''Dragon'' from 1984 to 1994, but was subsequently made subordinate to ''Cambria'' and rechristened to its current name.
