HMS Hedingham Castle was a Castle-class corvette of the Royal Navy named after Hedingham Castle in Essex.

She was originally to have been called Gorey Castle (after Mont Orgueil in Jersey). She was launched at John Crown & Sons Ltd in Sunderland on 30 October 1944. In World War II she served as a convoy escort.

In 1953 she took part in the Fleet Review to celebrate the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II^[1] and was broken up at Granton in April 1958.

Another Castle-class corvette was originally to have been called Hedingham Castle but she was reallocated to the Royal Canadian Navy before launching and renamed HMCS Orangeville.

She plays in the movie Crest Of The Wave (Roy Boulting - 1954).
