HMS Ardrossan (J131)

HMS Ardrossan was a turbine-engined Bangor class minesweeper of the Royal Navy. So far she has been the only ship of the Royal Navy named after the Scottish town of Ardrossan.

She was built by Blyth Shipbuilding Company, at Blyth, Northumberland and launched on 22 July 1941. She had a relatively quiet wartime career and was sold on 1 January 1948 for breaking up. She arrived at the breaker's yard at Thornaby-on-Tees on 19 August 1948.
