The church and parsonage, Holsteinborg
A view taken from the harbour looking south east towards the settlement of Holsteinborg. The two prominent buildings are the church and parsonage. The storeship HMS Diligence (1814), HMS Phoenix (1832), a converted screw Sloop, and the storeship HMS Talbot (1824), a converted Sixth Rate, arrived at Holsteinborg on 8 June at 1.45pm. They departed for Godhavn [referred to as Lievely in Phoenix's log] at 9am on 17 June 1854 on their way northward to supply the 'Franklin' search ships under Captain Sir Edward Belcher in the Canadian archipelago.
