The Neptune class consisted of three 98-gun, second rate ships of the line built for the Royal Navy (RN) during the 1790s. The ships often served as admirals' flagships during their careers. Completed during the French Revolutionary Wars in 1797, Neptune was the first of the class to enter service when she played a small role in suppressing the Nore mutiny that same year. Together with her sister ships Temeraire and Dreadnought, Neptune spent the time from her completion to 1805 assigned to the Channel Fleet on blockade duty, aside from a brief interregnum during the Peace of Amiens of 1802–1803.
