Norbury Junction

Norbury Junction (Grid Ref SJ 793228) lies about one mile to the south east of Norbury, Staffordshire, England, UK.

The small settlement here is named after the canal junction between the main line of the Birmingham and Liverpool Junction Canal (later to become part of the Shropshire Union Canal) and its Newport Branch which ran south-west through Newport to link to the now abandoned Shrewsbury Canal at Wappenshall Junction.

The first lock on the Newport Branch has been turned into a dry-dock. There is a pub, the Junction Inn, a boatyard with full facilities for boaters and a British Waterways maintenance depot.
