Good evening Siri

These ships are of a type known over here as "JEEPS"!!

There was a British built steam equivalent known as a "WEST HARTLEPOOL JEEP".

The following site gives details and a picture:

and this site can be browsed for the building yards:

If you come across D-Day pictures of ships on the landing beaches they are usually this type of vessel.

Best wishes

Phil
