TSS Mellifont was a twin screw passenger steamship operated by the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway from 1903 to 1928.
[1] She was built by Vickers Limited of Barrow-in-Furness for the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway in 1903.
With her sister ship TSS Colleen Bawn she operated a passenger and freight service between Drogheda and Liverpool as a replacement for the paddle steamers Tredagh and Kathleen Mavourneen.
The Mellifont reverted to the Drogheda-Liverpool route in 1912 when the remaining ex-Drogheda Steam Packet Company paddlers, Iverna and Norah Creina, were withdrawn from service.
When the LMS passed the Drogheda-Liverpool route to the British & Irish Steam Packet Company in 1928, the Mellifont was shifted to freight service between Holyhead and Greenore.
