Caldicot Castle (or Caldecot Castle, or Caldecott Castle), was built in 1794 at Caldicot, Monmouthshire. The French captured her twice, the second time she engaged her captor in a single ship action. She also survived the perils of the sea in 1803, 1807, and 1819. She was wrecked in October 1828 and was last listed in 1832.
Career
Caldicot Castle appears in the 1794 volume of Lloyd's Register with P. Driscoll, master, and trade Bristol—Quebec.[1]
On 18 March 1795, as Caldecot Castle, Driscol, master, was sailing from Barcelona to Guernsey, a French squadron of six ships-of-the-line, two frigates, and a corvette captured her off Cape St. Vincent. However, on 30 March Шаблон:HMS, of Admiral Colpoy's squadron, recaptured her and took her into Falmouth.[2][3] Ten British warships, Шаблон:HMS, Шаблон:HMS, Шаблон:HMS, Robust, Шаблон:HMS, Шаблон:HMS, Шаблон:HMS, Шаблон:HMS, and Шаблон:HMS, shared in the proceeds of Caldicot CastleШаблон:'s recapture on 28 March.[4][5]
In January 1803 Caldicot Castle was returning to Liverpool from Quebec when she had to put in at Crookhaven. She had lost her mizzen mast and rudder, and sustained other damage.[6]
Lloyd's List reported on 4 May 1804 that privateers had captured Шаблон:Ship, Cannell, master, Caldicot Castle, Skerrett, master, and Шаблон:Ship, Williams, master, and taken them into Guadeloupe.[7]Шаблон:Efn Captain Richard Sherrat wrote a letter from Barbados on 14 April in which he described the attack. He had sailed Caldicot Castle from Demerara on 27 February and by 8 March was about 200 miles east of Guadeloupe when at 8 pm two privateers, a schooner and a ship, came up and opened fire. After about 15 minutes, the schooner had sustained damages and had sheered off. By 9:20 the ship also sheared off but remained in sight. Next morning at 6am the ship recommenced the engagement. After about 15 minutes Sherrat had to strike. Caldicot CastleШаблон:'s rigging had been cut to pieces and he and two other men had been wounded, one mortally. The privateer was Grand Decide, which was armed with twenty 9-pounder and two 12-pounder brass guns, and had a crew of 160 men.Шаблон:SfnpШаблон:Efn
