HMS Ascot was a paddle steamer and minesweeper built in 1918, likely used during World War I. It was lost in 1918, though the exact date and cause of its loss remain unrecorded, and no details about lives or cargo lost are available; its significance lies in its contribution to naval operations during the war.
