The Peter Pomegranate was a 16th-century warship completed for service in 1510. Its name most likely was in honour of Saint Peter, founder of the Christian church, and after the badge of Queen Catharine of Aragon, a pomegranate. It had a tonnage of 450 when first built, but in 1536 it was rebuilt and enlarged to a tonnage of 600; at that date the name was shortened to Peter (Catharine had fallen out of grace; she died in 1536). The ship's fate is not recorded, but it was last mentioned in records in 1558. The Peter Pomegranate was a contemporary of the Mary Rose that sank during the Battle of the Solent in 1545.
