The Royal Albert Dock in Liverpool, United Kingdom, is a historic complex of dock buildings and warehouses. Opened in 1846, it was the first structure in Britain to be built entirely from cast iron, brick, and stone, without the use of wood, making it a pioneering architectural feat. The dock played a crucial role in the maritime trade of the British Empire, handling a wide variety of goods including cotton, tobacco, and sugar.
