She was built at Lithgows shipyard in Glasgow, Scotland, under order from the Ministry of War Transport. As a MAC ship, only her air crew and the necessary maintenance staff were naval personnel[1] and she was operated by Hain Steam Ship Co Ltd of St Ives.[2]
After the war, the ship was converted to a grain carrier and was eventually scrapped at Kaohsiung in 1971.[2]
