1. This (no doubt incomplete) list of nearly 1,200 vessels from dreadnoughts to motor boats has been compiled from five main sources:

"British Vessels Lost at Sea 1914-1918" by HMSO, c1920
"Jane's Fighting Ships", 1918 edition
"Conway's All the World's Fighting Ships, 1906-1921", 1985
"Ships of the Royal Navy", Volumes 1 & 2, by J J Colledge 1987 & 1989
"A Companion to the Royal Navy" by David A Thomas, 1988

2. The information for each vessel is in the order: meaning of name & number of vessels bearing that name (warships only); type of ship; date of loss in order year, month, day; theatre lost.

3. Any namesake lost in World War 2 is noted.

4. Differences between Colledge and Thomas on the number of ships bearing the same name are noted.
