The Duke of Lancaster is a railway steamer passenger ship in operation in Europe from 1956 to 1978, and currently beached in Mostyn docks, on the River Dee, north-east Wales.

The ship was previously used as a warehouse by its owners Solitaire Liverpool Ltd, a clothing company registered to the same address as Empirewise Ltd.[1] Despite rumours of the ship being scrapped, the company stated that they have no plans to sell it, or restore it[2] and its current use is uncertain.
