Hamilton graving dock is a nineteenth-century dry dock constructed in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The dock served the maritime and shipbuilding industries that were central to Belfast's industrial development during the Victorian period. As a graving dock, it was designed to allow ships to be hauled ashore for maintenance, repair, and construction work, representing the technological infrastructure that supported the city's position as a major shipbuilding centre. The structure remains an important example of industrial-era dock engineering from this period of intensive maritime activity in Belfast.
