Preston Dock (also known as Preston Docklands) was a former maritime dock located on the northern bank of the River Ribble approximately km ( mi) west of Preston's town centre in Lancashire, England. It is the location of the Albert Edward Basin which opened in 1892 and is connected to the river by a series of locks. The dock is km ( mi) from the Irish Sea and provided a port for shipping until its closure in 1981.[1] Most of the historic buildings and facilities have since been demolished and the area is now mainly commercial and residential property, along with some light industry. Following the dock's closure, a public marina was opened in 1987.[2]
