SS Marylebone (1906)

The SS Marylebone was a British cargo steamship built in 1906 by William Gray & Company of West Hartlepool. She was owned by Mann, Macneal & Co. and registered in Glasgow. The ship was primarily engaged in carrying general cargo and bulk materials.

During World War I, the Marylebone served as a defensively armed merchant ship (DAMS), meaning she was equipped with naval guns and manned by a Royal Navy gun crew to defend against enemy submarines and surface raiders. Specific details of her wartime service, including the number of voyages made and engagements with enemy vessels, are not readily available in comprehensively documented records.

Following the war, the Marylebone continued to operate as a merchant vessel. Her eventual fate, whether she was scrapped, lost at sea, or sold and renamed, is not definitively recorded in easily accessible maritime history databases. Further research would be needed to establish the exact details of her later years and ultimate disposition.
