PS Earl of Ulster was a paddle steamer passenger vessel operated by the London and North Western Railway and the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway from 1878 to 1894.[1]

History

She operated on services from Fleetwood to Belfast.

On 30 June 1883, she was involved in a collision off the Isle of Man with the schooner Susanna.[2]

On 12 March 1889, she collided with the Holywood Lighthouse in Belfast Lough and destroyed it.[3]
