HMS Knaresborough Castle

HMS Knaresborough Castle (K389) was a Castle-class corvette built for the Royal Navy during the Second World War. Completed in 1944, the ship escorted 16 convoys between the UK and Gibraltar before the surrender of Germany in May 1945. She was then assigned air-sea rescue duties at Gibraltar and Freetown until her return to British waters in early 1946. Knaresborough Castle was reduced to reserve upon her arrival. The ship was reactivated and became a training ship in 1952. She returned to reserve two years later and was sold for scrap in 1956.
