Belfast docks experienced decline primarily due to the collapse of the shipbuilding industry, which had been a cornerstone of the local economy. Factors such as increased global competition, outdated infrastructure, and political instability in Northern Ireland contributed to this downturn. Additionally, the shift in maritime trade routes and the rise of containerization rendered traditional dock operations less viable. As a result, many shipyards closed, leading to a significant decrease in port activity and employment in the area.

(the position of the docks moved further downstream to Tilbury); 2. Containerisation meant few dockers were needed with large cranes used to lift containers from ships; 3. The decline of portside industries and manufacturing hello
