 In the early-19th century, Devonport Dockyard was smaller than now; it was enlarged mid-century by Keyham Steam Yard - Keyham at that period was a suburb of Devonport itself.Keyham Steam Yard was one of the locations for the first trials of the Fairbairn patent crane.The development of housing was so rapid that HMS "Hotspur" later renamed HMS "Monmouth" was provided as a chapel ship for Roman Catholic services until the Roman Catholic Church of Our Most Holy Redeemer was built in 1901.
