HMS Hadleigh Castle (K355) was a Castle-class corvette of Britain's Royal Navy.
Hadleigh Castle was the first ship to be fitted with a production version of the highly effective Squid anti-submarine mortar, the prototype of which had only been installed on board HMS Ambuscade in May 1943.
She was laid down at Smiths Dock in Middlesbrough on 4 April 1943 and launched on 21 June 1943 before being commissioned on 18 September 1943 [1]
