''LCT 7074'' is the sole surviving British Landing Craft, Tank (LCT), an amphibious assault ship for landing tanks on beachheads. Built in 1944 by Hawthorn Leslie and Company, Hebburn, the Mark 3 ''LCT 7074'' was part of the 17th LCT Flotilla during Operation Neptune, the naval dimension of the D-Day landings in June 1944. The vessel was decommissioned in 1948, and presented to the Master Mariners' Club of Liverpool to be used as their club ship and renamed ''Landfall''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Landfall )〕 Later converted into a floating nightclub, the vessel was acquired by the Warship Preservation Trust in the late 1990s and was moored at Birkenhead. The vessel was raised in October 2014 and transported by sea to Portsmouth for restoration.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=D-day tank carrier Landfall refloated for restoration )〕

Initially developed by the British Royal Navy and later by the United States Navy during World War II into a number of different versions. Initially known as the "Tank Landing Craft" (TLC) by the British, they later adopted the American nomenclature "Landing Craft, Tank" (LCT). LCT 7074 was one of 235 LCT Mark 3’s. The vessel was built by Hawthorn, Leslie and powered by American Sterling Admiral petrol engines. Launched on 30 March, 1944, the vessel was commissioned into the Royal Navy shortly afterwards.
