TWW Comment

Esquimalt Royal Naval Dockyard was a major British Royal Navy yard on Canada's Pacific coast from 1842 to 1905, and since operated by the Canadian government. A graving/dry dock was constructed at Esquimalt starting in 1876. The dry dock was commissioned in 1887. Now over a century old, the dock is used regularly to service HMC ships and is part of the Fleet Maintenance Facility.
