History

Weston Mill Lake (at one time Devonport's coaling yard) was converted in the 1980s to provide frigate berths for the Type 22 fleet.[1] After the Type 22 fleet had been decommissioned and the lake had been re-designated the base for its amphibious warfare ships, the Royal Navy decided to create a centre of excellence for landing craft, hovercraft and fast boats there: the centre, which handles both training and operations, was opened by Prince Harry on 2 August 2013.[2]

47 Commando (Raiding Group) Royal Marines and its training unit, 10 (Landing Craft) Training Squadron, moved from RM Poole to RM Tamar at that time[3] and 539 Assault Squadron RM, which undertakes operations for 1 Assault Group, moved from RM Turnchapel to RM Tamar.[4]
