HMS Albury was a Hunt-class minesweeper of the Aberdare sub-class built for the Royal Navy during World War I.
The engines produced a total of 2,200 indicated horsepower (1,600 kW) and gave a maximum speed of 16 knots (30 km/h; 18 mph).
They carried a maximum of 185 long tons (188 t) of coal[1] which gave them a range of 1,500 nautical miles (2,800 km; 1,700 mi) at 15 knots (28 km/h; 17 mph).
[10] The 4th Flotilla Group was tasked with sweeping the path ahead of D-Day and in support of the US forces landing at Omaha and Utah beaches.
[20] From January 1945, Albury was laid up as part of the Reserve Fleet at Falmouth, and on 13 March 1947 was sold to Dohman & Habets of Liège, Belgium for mercantile conversion.
