HMNB Clyde

His Majesty's Naval Base Clyde (commonly Faslane) is the Royal Navy's principal shore establishment on the Gare Loch in western Scotland and the home base for the United Kingdom's fleet of nuclear submarines. The base complex includes Faslane (HMS Neptune) on Gare Loch and the Royal Naval Armaments Depot (RNAD) Coulport on Loch Long, together with extensive quays, maintenance yards and security perimeters.

As it stood in 2020

The shape it held in its prime.

A working cold‑war and modern naval complex of long concrete quays, corrugated maintenance sheds, lattice shipyard cranes and fenced security perimeters hugging a still loch. Dominant colours are naval grey hulls, weathered concrete and muted corrugated metal, with knots of equipment and coiled lines on the quays. The site sits low to the water with rolling, tree‑clad hills rising behind; vessels from small patrol craft to large submarines and destroyers line the piers.
