text:
Six ships of the Royal Navy have borne the name HMS Griffon, an alternative spelling of the legendary creature, the Griffin. Another ship was planned, but later cancelled and reordered from a different dockyard: HMS Griffon (1758) was a 28-gun sixth rate launched in 1758 and wrecked in 1761.
HMS Griffon (1808) was a French 16-gun brig-sloop launched in 1806. HMS Bacchante captured her in 1808 and the navy sold her in 1819. She then served as a merchant vessel until c. 1846.
