Hanwell flight of locks and brick boundary wall of St Bernard's Hospital is a complex of structures associated with the development of the Grand Junction Canal and the establishment of a significant institutional building in Middlesex. The flight of locks, constructed in the early nineteenth century as part of the canal system, represents important engineering infrastructure of the period, whilst the brick boundary wall relates to St Bernard's Hospital, a substantial institutional establishment. Together these structures document the landscape changes of the nineteenth century in the Hanwell area, reflecting both the transport revolution and the development of provision for healthcare or welfare. The monuments survive as physical evidence of these two major themes of industrial and social development in the period.
