County class cruiser

The County class were the first and last heavy cruisers of the Royal Navy. The ships were large, at 630ft (192m), though they had no side armour when built. The County class were built in four sub-classes, that became known as the Kent, London, Norfolk and York classes. The first three sub-classes were built to the constraints of the Washington Naval Treaty of 1922.
