Richard was a 70-gun second-rate ship of the navy of the Commonwealth of England, launched in 1658. She was built by the Master Shipwright Christopher Pett at Woolwich Dockyard. She was renamed HMS Royal James and re-classed as a first rate in 1660. She served as the flagship of Prince Rupert in the Battle of Lowestoft and the Four Days Battle. She was burned by the Dutch during the raid on the Medway in 1667.
