Bury er en by i den nordlige delen av Stor-Manchester i England,^[1] mellom Rochdale og Bolton. Den ligger rett vest for motorveien M66, og er administrasjonssenter og største by i Bury-distriktet. Den ligger ved elven Irwell, 8,9 km øst for Bolton, 9,5 km vest-sørvest for Rochdale, og 12,7 km nord-nordvest for Manchester. Bury hadde i henhold til folketellingen i 2011 en befolkning på 77 211 innbyggere,^[2] mens dens bykommune har en befolkning på 185 422 innbyggere i 2011.^[3]

Historisk var Bury en del av Lancashire. Byen nevnes første gang som et sogn i 962. Det ligger flere romerske ruiner der, så bosetningen går betraktelig lenger tilbake. Fram til den industrielle revolusjon forble den en liten by, men så betydde nærheten til Manchester og den gode tilgangen på hurtig rennende vann at man kunne bygge fabrikker drevet med vannkraft i området. Hovedproduktet var framstilling av tekstiler fra bomull, som ble skipet ut via Manchester.

Bury er kjent for sitt friluftsmarked og lokale tradisjonsrike matrett svart pudding.^[4] Manchester Metrolink har endestasjon i byen. Byens meste kjent bysbarn er Robert Peel, sønn av en rik tekstilfrabrikant fra Bury, og selv født i Bury. Han ble britisk statsminister og grunnla det britiske politi og det konservative partiet. En statue av Peel står utenfor Burys sognekirke og et fallisk tårn i mursten, Peel Monument, står på Holcombe Hill med utsyn over Ramsbottom.

Idrett

Fotballklubben Bury FC holder til i byen, og spiller sine hjemmekamper på Gigg Lane.
