HMS Milford was a 32-gun fifth rate built under contract by William Hubbard of Ipswich in 1694/95.
She was the second vessel to carry the name Milford since it was used for a 32-gun fifth rate built at Woolwich Dockyard on 30 March 1690 and captured by the French in the North Sea in November 1693.[1]
