Lord Bank (67°50′S 69°15′W / 67.833°S 69.250°W / -67.833; -69.250 ) is a submarine bank in the Bellingshausen Sea with a least depth of 18 metres (60 ft) lying west-southwest of the entrance to Quest Channel, Adelaide Island, Antarctica. The bank was surveyed from HMS Endurance in January 1980 and was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee after Captain James Trevor Lord, Royal Navy, the commanding officer of HMS Endurance, 1978–80.[1]
