The Langport was a 52-gun third rate Speaker-class frigate ordered in December 1652 for the navy of the Commonwealth of England and built by shipbuilder William Bright at Horsleydown, Bermondsey, London.

She was launched in 1654,[2] and named for the Parliamentary victory at the Battle of Langport in 1645.

She took part in the Battle of Santa Cruz de Tenerife on 20 April 1657.

After the Restoration in 1660, the Langport was taken into the new Royal Navy, and renamed HMS Henrietta after the Queen Consort.

Henrietta was wrecked during a storm in the Cattewater in Plymouth Sound on Christmas Day of 1689.
