HMS Albemarle was a 90-gun second rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, launched in 1680 at Harwich.
She was rebuilt in 1704 at Chatham Dockyard, remaining a 90-gun second rater. She was also renamed HMS Union at this time. She underwent a second rebuild at Chatham, from where she was relaunched on 8 February 1726 as a 90-gun second rater built to the 1719 Establishment.
Union was broken up in 1749.
