n. (safe harbour English)

Usage examples of "safe harbours".

Nelson had probably decided that the enemy were trying to divide the British squadrons by ruses and quick dashes from safe harbours.

When all was done, he led his garrison away eastward, over the river and through Winstone to the Roman road, heading, most likely, for Cricklade, which was secure from immediate threat, and the centre of a circle of other castles held by the king, Bampton, Faringdon, Purton and Malmesbury, among which safe harbours his fighting men and his wounded could be comfortably distributed.
