HMS ''Cressy'' was a 74-gun third rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, launched on 7 March 1810 at Frindsbury.〔 ==Service==
On 24 December 1811 ''Cressy'' was off the west coast of Jutland, Denmark was in the company of ''St George'', under Rear-admiral Robert Carthew Reynolds, and ''Defence'', when a hurricane and heavy seas came up.〔 ''St George'' was jury-rigged and so Captain Atkins of ''Defence'' refused to leave her without the Admiral's permission. As a result both were wrecked near Ringkøbing.〔Gossett (1986), p. 81.〕 ''Cressy'' did not ask for permission and so avoided wrecking.〔 Both ''St George'' and ''Defence'' lost almost all their crews, including the Admiral.〔 Most of the bodies that came ashore were buried in the sand dunes of Thorsminde, which have been known ever since as "Dead Mens Dunes".〔
