HMS Grenville was the flotilla leader for the G-class destroyers, built for the Royal Navy in the mid-1930s. She spent most of the pre-war period as part of the Mediterranean Fleet. The ship was transferred to the British Isles to escort shipping in local waters shortly after the beginning of World War II. In January 1940, Grenville struck a mine outside the Thames Estuary and sank with the loss of 77 of her crew.
Grenville displaced 1,455 long tons at standard load and 2,053 long tons at deep load. The ship had an overall length of 330 feet , a beam of 34 feet 6 inches and a draught of 12 feet 9 inches . She was powered by Parsons geared steam turbines, driving two shafts, which developed a total of 38,000 shaft horsepower and gave a maximum speed of 36 knots . Steam for the turbines was provided by three Yarrow side-fired, water-tube boilers. Grenville carried a maximum of 470 long tons of fuel oil that gave her a range of 5,530 nautical miles at 15 knots . The ship's complement was 175 officers and men.
