Bunbury locks, bridge and stables is a group of structures associated with canal infrastructure in Cheshire, dating from the late eighteenth century. The site comprises locks forming part of the Shropshire Union Canal system, together with a bridge and associated stable buildings that served the working needs of the canal transport network. The structures reflect the development of inland water transport during the Industrial Revolution, when canals became vital arteries for the movement of goods and materials across England. The physical remains demonstrate the engineering and architectural standards characteristic of late Georgian canal construction.
