Dedham Lock and Mill is an oil on canvas landscape painted around 1820 by the English painter John Constable, measuring 53.7 by 76.2 centimeters and held in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, which received it in 1857 as part of the Sheepshanks Gift. It shows the River Stour at Dedham in Essex, near the Suffolk border, an area now known as Constable Country, including the mill owned by the artist's father, the nearby Flatford Mill that Constable painted repeatedly, and St Mary's Church visible in the distance.
