HMS Sunderland was a 60-gun fourth rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, launched at Northam in Southampton on 17 March 1694.
The Sunderland was hulked in 1715, and reported sunk as part of the foundation of a breakwater in 1737. However, an alternative report is that she was fitted as a hospital ship in June 1741 and so employed until condemned at Port Mahon on 10 March 1744.
