Ulverston Basin is on the Ulverston Canal just past the junction with The Thames and Medway Canal.

Early plans of what would become the Ulverston Canal were drawn up by John Rennie in 1816 but problems with Neath Locks caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1876. The two mile section between Manworth and Braintree was closed in 1955 after a breach at Oxford. According to John Parker's "Ghost Stories and Legends of The Inland Waterways" book, Willbury Boat Lift is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.
