Maid of England was a sailing barquentine built in Gross Coques, Digby County, Nova Scotia in 1919 by Omer Blinn.[3] Maid of England was the last square-rigged cargo vessel built in Maritime provinces of Canada.[2] Maid of England was owned by F.K. Warren (of Halifax, Nova Scotia) for nine years, and then later abandoned at sea in 1928.[2]Maid of England was built in 1919, but did not appear in Lloyd’s registry until the 1920-21 edition.[4] Her official number was 141573.[4] She had one deck[4] and was made from spruce and pine.[5] She had three masts, one foremast rigged square, one amidships, and one in the aft end of the vessel, which is why she is classified as a barquentine. Maid of England was the last of the few Canadian commercial vessels to carry a square rig.[6] Maid of England had an initial gross weight of 751 tonnes, with an acceptable weight range of 563-696 tonnes.[4] However, these specifics had changed to a gross weight of 690 tonnes and an acceptable weight range of 543 – 583 tonnes, in Lloyd’s registry in 1923-24.[7] She was 174.7’ long, had a 37.6’ breadth and was 15.2’ deep.[4]

As the Age of Sail had nearly drawn to a close when Maid of England was built, the building crew was composed of elderly and skilled shipwrights.[2] The half model of Maid of England used was cut by W.R. Huntley (a Parrsboro shipbuilder).[2] The model was later used as a representation for the construction of the "Cumberland Queen," later build by Robinson and Pugsley at Diligent River in 1919.[2]

F. K. Warren had owned a number of ships and had established a marine shipping company in 1896, which is referred to as F. K. Warren LTD, and is still in operation today{{when|date=September 2014}} in Halifax Nova Scotia.[8] Among his ever-growing fleet, Warren also owned Earle V. S.,[4] Martha Parsons,[4] Emily Anderson (abandoned at sea in 1919),[9] and Maid of Scotland, which was sunk in a collision.[10] The unfortunate fate of previous ships owned by F. K. Warren make the fate of Maid of England that much more intriguing.{{clarify|date=September 2014}}
