HMS Raglan was a British Royal Navy armoured warship that served during World War I. Originally laid down as a Lord Clive-class monitor in 1914, she was converted into a coastal bombardment ship named HMS Raglan after the loss of the original Raglan in the Dardanelles campaign. The ship was armed with two 15-inch guns and participated in the bombardment of German positions on the Belgian coast in 1917. She was transferred to the French Navy in 1919 and renamed Marceau before being returned to Britain in 1920. HMS Raglan was eventually sold for scrap in 1921. The ship's career was relatively short-lived, but it played a significant role in coastal operations during the war.
