You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.197.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 10:52, 20 August 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Bunbury''' is a village in [[Cheshire]], England, south of [[Tarporley]] and north west of [[Nantwich]] on the [[Shropshire Union Canal]]. At the [[United Kingdom Census 2001|2011 Census]], it had a population of 1,195.<ref>((cite web |url=http://www.neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadKeyFigures.do?a=7&b=11121406&c=Bunbury&d=16&e=62&g=6407688&i=1001x1003x1032x1004&m=0&r=1&s=1457874426094&enc=1 |title=Civil Parish population 2011 |access-date=13 March 2016 |publisher=Office for National Statistics |work=Neighbourhood Statistics))</ref>

==History==
Bunbury was reputedly derived from Buna-burh, meaning the "redoubt of Buna". Just prior to 1066 it was held by a certain Dedol of Tiverton. It was listed as Boleberie in the Domesday Survey of 1086 and the lord of the fief was Robert FitzHugh. A Norman family later acquired the surname of De Boneberi, and were linked to Rake Hall during and after the reign of King Stephen. They were allegedly a cadet line of the Norman family of De St Pierre, associated with Hugh "Lupus" Earl of Chester, one of the famous "marcher lords" of the Welsh Marches.

Much later, in the era of the English Civil War and on the date of 23 December 1642 some of the prominent gentlemen of Cheshire met in Bunbury and drew up the [[Bunbury Agreement]]. The terms of the agreement were intended to keep Cheshire neutral during the [[English Civil War]]. It proved to be a forlorn hope because the national strategic importance of Cheshire and the city port of [[Chester]] meant that national interests overruled local ones.

Bunbury was a victim of the [[Liverpool Blitz|Blitz]] during [[World War II]]. German aircraft returning from a night raid on [[Liverpool]] in 1940 jettisoned surplus bombs over the village, obliterating Church Row (the houses have since been rebuilt). The blast caused minor damage to the exterior of St Boniface's Church and the immediate area. The original village centre surrounding the church was hit, damaging shops beyond repair.<ref name=thornber>((citation |url=http://www.thornber.net/cheshire/htmlfiles/bunbury.html |title=Bunbury |last=Thornber |first=Craig |access-date=7 November 2008))</ref> This has largely caused the current centre to evolve in the geographical heart of the village.

Four old villages have combined to form the modern-day Bunbury. These are:
* Higher Bunbury (centred on the church and the Dysart Arms),
* Lower Bunbury (the main part of the village today),
* Bunbury Heath (essentially School Lane) and
* Bunbury Common (from Higher Bunbury towards Bunbury Locks).

The last three have coalesced to form a single village. The River Gowy is a natural division between Higher and Lower Bunbury.

Bunbury was used in the autumn of 2014 as the setting for the fictional village of 'Great Paxford' in the ITV drama ''[[Home Fires (UK TV series)|Home Fires]]''.<ref>((Cite web |url=http://www.visitcheshire.com/things-to-do/film-and-tv-locations/home-fires |title=Home Fires))</ref>

==Landmarks==

[[Bunbury Mill]] is a [[watermill]] dating from 1844, although there has been a mill on this site since 1290.<ref>((Citation |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-17517434 |title=Bunbury Mill in Cheshire reopens to public |date=12 March 2012 |access-date=14 July 2012 |publisher=[[BBC]]))</ref> Following damage caused by a flood in 1960, the mill closed in 1966. It was restored to working order and reopened to the public as a museum by [[North West Water|North West Water Authority]] (later part of [[United Utilities]]). It was closed again in 2010, and passed into the ownership of the Bunbury Watermill Trust, who have reopened it to visitors.<ref>((Citation |url=http://www.bunburymill.com/ |title=Home |access-date=14 July 2012 |publisher=Bunbury Watermill Trust))</ref>

The main lane in Bunbury is Bunbury Lane which contains three shops (butcher, general convenience store/Post Office and fish and chip shop), two hairdressers, and three pubs - the Nags Head, the Dysart Arms (Cheshire Dining Pub of the Year 2009) and the Yew Tree (formerly the Crewe Arms) which re-opened in 2010.

[[Bunbury Aldersey School|Bunbury Aldersey C of E Primary school]] is in School Lane.

[[St Boniface's Church, Bunbury|The parish church]] is [[Dedication (ritual)|dedicated]] to [[Saint Boniface]] and is built on the highest point of the village. It is over 1,000&nbsp;years old and is built on an older pagan site. This was a [[collegiate church]] built in the 14th&nbsp;century; the [[nave]] [[arcade (architecture)|arcades]] and [[aisle]] windows are about 100&nbsp;years later than this. There is an [[alabaster]] [[effigy]] of the founder of the college, [[Hugh Calveley|Sir&nbsp;Hugh Calveley]], other effigies, and a 17th-century tomb. It was restored after bomb damage during the Second World War.<ref>Betjeman, J., ed. (1968) ''Collins Pocket Guide to English Parish Churches: the North''. London: Collins; p. 101</ref>

Bunbury has amenities such as a cricket pavilion, sports pitches, tennis courts, a scout hut (with a new one under construction in 2011) and a village hall. It also has some clubs and societies.

Sadlers Wells Woods is located near the A49 road. The wooded area was also mentioned in the [[Domesday Book]] written in the time of William the Conqueror.
