Belmont Hosiery Mill was a historic textile mill building located at Belmont, Gaston County, North Carolina. The original section was built in 1945-1946, and was a two-story-on-basement brick mill building. In 1952, a two-bay-deep, two-story-on basement addition was built and in 1958, a two-story-on-basement rectangular addition was built and features Art Moderne detailing. In 1969, a roughly "U"-shaped two-story-on-basement addition was built at the rear of the mill. A small one-story loading dock addition completed around 1998. The mill closed in 2000.[2] The mill has been demolished.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.[1]
