s.s. 'Victoria' - The single screw vessel was a defensively armed British merchant steamer of 974 gross register tons, built at the yard of Bergens Mekaniske Verksted at Bergen, Norway, in 1896. She was operated at the time of her loss by The Shipping Controller (Turnbull, Scott & Company), London.

On the 17th November 1917, whilst on a voyage from Penarth (agent Mr. Humber) to Dieppe with a cargo of coal, she was sunk by a torpedo (from UB40 ??) when 14 miles off the Eddystone lighthouse, Cornwall. Two members of the crew of 21 were sadly lost. [882] [794]
