H.M.S. Teviot was one of the Royal Navy's thirty-six "River" class destroyers.
Service
In late 1905, she was one of eight destroyers in the Second Division of the Channel Fleet's Destroyer Flotilla.[9]
In April, 1908, she was one of ten Rivers expected to arrive at Portsmouth in order to have H.M.S. Vernon install wireless telegraphy equipment in them.[10]
Subject to her exercises being completed, Teviot was to leave Falmouth on 3 May 1911 for Sheerness under the lead of Diamond in company with sisters Erne, Cherwell and Ure.[11] Around June 13th, Diamond took the destroyers from Sheerness for the Downs, accompanied by eight further "Rivers".[12] Then in June, she went to Gibraltar under the command of Lt. Gerald Cartmell Harrison. Upon arrival in Gibraltar, Harrison was to go over to command Kestrel. Teviot was then to undergo a retubing refit at the Dockyard, which would complete by late January, 1912.[13][14]
In mid-1913, Teviot was operating with the Ninth Destroyer Flotilla — a patrol flotilla.[15]
Teviot collided with the destroyer Dee on 7 November, 1913.[16]
On 2 February, 1914, she was one of five Rivers of the Ninth Destroyer Flotilla paid off at Sheerness and Chatham, immediately recommissioning with new crews.[17]
On 3 December, 1916, a French destroyer collided with Teviot while the latter was under the command of Lt. Cdr. (retired) Sydney L. K. Lawford. P12 was credited with saving lives of French sailors in the aftermath.[18]
