What kind of rocktypes do you think these are? They're from a 100 year old submarine dry dock.

I think limestone is correct for the one. Here is a picture of Kingston dry docks which is built with limestone. Similar.

Then probably some type of gneiss along the right wall, hard to tell because of the weathering and probable industrial wear.

And some type of limestone for the actual dry dock.

It looks like a very nicely built structure, shame it isn't restored with like a comfy cafe next to it.

If you dont provide better close-ups and region of origin it could be almost anything.
Furthermore, to give you a 99.99% accurate answer, I'll need a sample so I can analyze it's crystal chemistry.
It isn't as simple as hobbyists might have you believe.

It is pretty clearly limestone, a common dry dock material (which you would know if you were an elite /his/torian), and some type of sturdy metamorphic rock.

Fuck off back to your own board, bench monkey
