  HMS Bassingham - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
HMS Bassingham was one of 76 ships of the Ham class of inshore minesweepers, of which Inglesham (M2601) was the first.
The engines of this class were Paxman Diesels, some of which were built under licence by Ruston and Hornsby of Lincoln.
The class was designed to operate in the shallow water of rivers and estuaries.

 [No title]
Later vessels of the class were 230 to 240 feet long, and of 800 to 820 tons surface displacement, and carried six torpedo tubes and 16 torpedoes.
A later class were double-hulled, 180 feet long, with greater endurance (8,000 miles at 6 knots), a surface speed of 13 knots and a submerged speed of 8 knots; they carried one 4.1-inch gun, five tubes and 10 torpedoes.
In all cases of disguise or of changing disguise it was essential that the decoy ship should assume the identity of some class of vessel likely to be met with in the particular area in which she was working, and obviously the courses steered were chosen with that object in view.

 List of minesweepers of the Royal Navy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In both World Wars trawlers were employed (in World War II this task was given to smaller trawlers of around 300 tons, larger ones being used for anti-submarine work).
This was mainly early in World War II for sweeping of magnetic mines.
The ships selected were of varying origin and age and thus do not form a class as such.

 The Development of Naval Minewarfare
Minesweeping is a form of defensive active MCM and can involve mechanical sweeping (towing wires and cutters to sever moored mines from their sinkers or chain sweeps dragged across the seabed) or influence sweeping (using magnetic, acoustic and pressure sources to actuate or jam mine sensors).
Early British minesweeping was limited to the towing of a ground chain from two spars set across the stern of a vessel but this resulted in an extremely narrow swept path and the chain was easily snagged by seabed obstructions.
British minesweeping was ineffective on the first eight nights owing to strong currents and enemy fire; the trawlers repeatedly withdrew under harassing fire from enemy gun batteries and one was mined on 10 March.

Positioning tourism as a potential strategic alternative was predicated on the region becoming a coherent four-season tourist draw, dependent on consumption of the attractive natural environments of Georgian Bay and the Niagara escarpment – a leisurescape that would be devoid of reference to Collingwood's capacity for industrial independence.
Amidst successive minority claims that a “world class” waterfront would put Collingwood on the map, came the majority voices claiming the right to access, heritage artifacts and consideration for further industrial development.
