Title: Hms Beryl
Post by: mikgo on July 14, 2013, 03:14:13 pm

Hi I wonder if any members can help me. I have a model of Hms Beryl that I am restoring if anybody has any photos or details of this vessel I would be most grateful. Also who may have made a kit of this ship.
Cheers
Mick

Do you mean the trawler HMT Beryl?  The Book requisitioned trawlers has an entry for her but little detail other than dates of requisition and a brief reference to armament and displacement etc.  Unfortunately no photos are in the book of her.  Or is it possible you mean HMT Lady Beryl?
 
I'm not aware of any kit on the market in recent or current years.

Hi I think it is Hmt Beryl. It's pennant number is T34.
Thanks for replying
Mick

Yes T34 was HMT Beryl.  The limited information in Part two of RN trawlers - requisitioned trawlers, merely gives armament as two 6 pndrs and no other details and no photo.

Hi Frank
Thanks for the links. There seems to be very few pictures of the Beryl. But all information is. Useful.
Cheers
Mick
