HMS Bridgewater
From Warlike
HMS Bridgewater was a 24-gun sixth rate of the Royal Navy which saw active service as a privateer-hunter in British waters from 1745 to 1749, during which time she captured six enemy vessels. Under repair from 1750 to 1754, she then returned to service as part of a squadron patrolling the Coromandel coast in India during the Seven Years' War. Trapped by the French off Fort St. David in 1758, she was run aground and burned to avoid being captured.
