HMS Winchester was an Admiralty W-class destroyer of the Royal Navy.

Completed towards the end of the First World War, Winchester went on to be part of operations against the Bolsheviks in the Baltic Sea.

After the Second World War the ship was placed on the reserve list, and was sold in March 1946.

Beckett RN, HMS Winchester fulfilled King George V's dying wish for his beloved racing yacht HMY Britannia to follow him to the grave.

Her hull was towed out to St Catherine's Deep near the Isle of Wight, and she was sunk by HMS Winchester.
