HMS Eridge was a Hunt-class destroyer of the Royal Navy.

On 29 August 1942, Eridge assisted the destroyers Hero and Hurworth in sinking the German submarine U-568.

[1] At 04:15 on 29 August 1942, she began shelling Axis positions off El Daba, Egypt, at 31°7′N 28°26′E / 31.117°N 28.433°E / 31.117; 28.433, together with the destroyers Croome and Hursley.

The destroyer was used as a base ship in situ for the rest of the war and sold for scrapping in October 1946.
