About Woodcot

Woodcot, originally launched in 1786 as an East Indiaman for the British East India Company, completed four successful voyages before being captured by the French in 1798 near Tellicherry on her fifth journey home. Following her capture, she was acquired by American owners, who renamed her Berkshire and sailed her to Bombay in 1799. This maritime history may be relevant for those researching planning applications in the area, highlighting Woodcot's significance in trade and navigation during the late 18th century.
