One ship, and two shore establishments, of the Royal Navy have borne the name HMS Lochinvar:

  • HMS Lochinvar (1915) was a Laforey-class destroyer built as HMS Malice, but renamed before being launched in 1915. She was sold for breaking up in 1921.
  • HMS Lochinvar (shore establishment) was a minesweeper training base at Port Edgar, commissioned in 1939. It became an active minesweeper base in 1941, and moved to Granton in 1943.

  • HMS Lochinvar II was an accounting base at Granton in 1946, and at Port Edgar between 1946 and 1947.
