HMS Ardrossan (J131)

HMS Ardrossan (J131) was a Hunt-class minesweeper of the Royal Navy. She was built by the Ailsa Shipbuilding Company, Troon, Scotland and launched on 27 February 1941. Her pennant number was J131. The ship served during the Second World War, primarily in anti-mine operations in the British Isles and surrounding waters. Specific operational details regarding her wartime service remain scarce in readily available public sources. Further research into naval archives may reveal more information about her individual contributions to the war effort. Following the war, her ultimate fate, whether scrapping or other disposition, requires further investigation.
