HMS Stirling Castle was a 64-gun third rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, built by Israel Pownoll and launched on 28 June 1775 at Chatham. She was wrecked on 5 October 1780 on the Silver Keys, off Cap François, off the coast of Cuba with the loss of most of her crew. As the Massachusetts ship Aurora was sailing from Boston to Port-au-Prince she came upon the wreckage of Stirling Castle and was able to save a midshipman and four seamen.
