England was built at Chepstow, Wales in 1813. She made three voyages transporting convicts from England to Australia. On the first she was under charter to the British East India Company (EIC) and, after delivering her convicts, sailed to Canton where she picked up a cargo for the EIC. She foundered in 1843 in the Channel while on a voyage to Sierra Leone. Career England first appeared in Lloyd's Register (LR) in 1813 with E. Reay, master, T.Ward, owner, and trade London transport. Later she sailed to Jamaica. In 1813 the EIC had lost its monopoly on the trade between India and Britain. British ships were then free to sail to India or the Indian Ocean under a license from the EIC. On 16 December 1818 Captain Reay sailed England for Bombay. On 3 June 1820 England, Reay, master, was in the Downs when she and Mary, Draper, master, ran into each other. England was returning from Bengal and Mary was sailing for Sierra Leone. Both vessels put into Ramsgate for refitting.
