New Trafalgar Dispatch
Portland
21st October 1805 was the date of Vice Admiral Lord Nelson's historic victory at the Battle of Trafalgar. This momentous event in British history is dramatised 200 years later by the New Trafalgar Dispatch which recreates the dramatic sea and land voyage Lieutenant Lapenotiere undertook to deliver Vice Admiral Collingwood's original Trafalgar Dispatch.
