The HMS Agincourt of 1913 is perhaps the best known Agincourt of all the ships taking on the name for the Royal Navy.

The HMS Agincourt was laid down in 1911 by Armstrongs of Newcastle upon Tyne. She was launched in 1913 and officially commissioned in 1914. She was decommissioned in 1921 and sold for scrap by 1924.
