"Rodney" fired 378 sixteen-inch shells and 706 six-inch shells during the battle before Dalrymple-Hamilton ordered cease fire around 10:16, while "Dorsetshire" was then ordered to finish "Bismarck" off with torpedoes. Ironically, "Rodney"s own main guns firing at low elevation had damaged her more extensively than had "Bismarck". Deck plates around the main-gun turrets had been depressed by the effects of the guns' muzzle blast, and some of the structural members supporting them had cracked or buckled. Piping, urinals and water mains had broken, while the shock of firing had loosened rivets and bolts in the hull plating, flooding various compartments. One gun in 'A' turret permanently broke down during the battle, and two others in 'B' turret were temporarily disabled.
