History per fortships.tripod.com/Royal%20Navy.htm:

Original projected name TREVOSE HEAD. Work suspended before completion. Sold and converted to merchant ship.

In total, twenty-one maintenance ships were ordered from Canadian shipbuilders for use by the Royal Navy. Sixteen 'Victory' type vessels were completed by West Coast shipbuilders but as the war ended, the orders for the final five ships were cancelled.

These five vessels, this ship MULL OF OA (which was launched as TREVOSE HEAD), Rattray Head, Orfordness, Selsey Bill and Tarbet Ness were completed as merchant ships and, as they had been built to a high specification, found a ready market as cargo liners. All these maintenance ships were owned by the Royal Navy but two were later transferred to the Royal Canadian Navy.
