HMS Mercury (shore establishment)
HMS ''Mercury'' was a shore establishment of the Royal Navy, and the site of the Royal Navy Signals School and Combined Signals School. There was also a subsidiary branch, HMS ''Mercury II''.
==Establishment and history==
The school was established at Leydene House, East Meon, near Petersfield, Hampshire, England and was commissioned as HMS ''Mercury'' on 16 August 1941 under the command of Captain Gerald Warner.〔Kent, Captain Barrie; Signal! A history of signalling in the Royal Navy; Hyden House Limited, 1993〕 A signalling school had been established at HM Barracks, Portsmouth in 1904 and was transferred to Petersfield during the Second World War. Extensions were also established at a number of other sites, including Bristol, Cambridge and Liss. In November 1943 a wireless telegraphy school was established at St. Bede's Prep School, Eastbourne, and a WRNS training establishment at Soberton Towers. The base went on to house both the Communications and Navigations faculties of the Royal Navy's School of Maritime Operations (SMOPS). The school trained generations of Royal Navy Communicators and Navigators until 31 August 1993 when the establishment was decommissioned. At the time of its closure, HMS ''Mercury'' was home to the Communications and Navigations Faculties of the Royal Navy's School of Maritime Operations and the Special Communications Unit (SCU), Leydene. SCU, Leydene became an independent establishment on 1 September 1995.
During its time in operation, HMS ''Mercury'' had three nominated depot ships, MB ''3520'' from 16 August 1941, HL(D) ''1854'' from 1948 until June 1950, and HL(D) ''42473'' from June 1950 until her sale on 18 June 1959.
