Vice Admiral Cuthbert Collingwood, 1st Baron Collingwood (26 September 1748 – 7 March 1810) was an admiral of the Royal Navy, notable as a partner with his close friend Lord Nelson in several of the British victories of the Napoleonic Wars, such as Trafalgar (1805) and frequently as Nelson's successor in commands. Collingwood's merits as a naval officer were in many respects of the first order. His political judgement was remarkable and he was consulted on questions of general policy, of regulation, and even of trade. He was opposed to impressment and to flogging and was considered so kind and generous that he was called "father" by the common sailors. He succumbed to cancer on board HMS Ville de Paris on 7 March 1810 and was laid to rest beside Nelson in the crypt of St Paul's Cathedral.
