British Hero (ship)

Several vessels have been named British Hero:

• British Hero (1801 ship) was launched in North Shields. A French privateer captured her in January or February 1806.
• British Hero (1809 ship) was launched at Jarrow. She initially was a government transport and so did not appear in Lloyd's Register or the Register of Shipping until she came into mercantile service c. 1813. She was lost in November 1816 on a voyage to India.
