- 1st Class cruiser.
- Served between October 1899 and March 1900. Commanded by Captain P M Scott CB.
- Sister ship of HMS Powerful. See HMS Powerful for more information. After the Boer War, she was refitted 1902 to 1904 and went into the reserve fleet. She was used as a troop ship in 1915 and from 1915 as an accommodation ship until the late 1920s. She was renamed TS Fishgard III and scrapped in Jul 1932.
HMS Terrible 'Double Relief'
After service in the Boer War, HMS Terrible was redeployed to China in 1900. Some of her crew thereby gained entitlement to the Relief of Ladysmith clasp in the Boer War and the Relief of Pekin clasp in China.
This is a list of those men. My thanks to David Humphry for this information.
