'HMS ''Brigham''' was one of 93 ships of the ''Ham'' class of inshore minesweepers.
Their names were all chosen from villages ending in ''-ham''. The minesweeper was named after Brigham in Cumbria.
The ship's bell is now in St Bridget's Church of England Primary School, Brigham, where it was used as a fire alarm until a more modern fire alarm system was installed.
