Sunbury Lock Ait is the ait (island) in the River Thames in England adjacent to Sunbury Lock between Walton-on-Thames, and Sunbury-on-Thames, Surrey. It is unpopulated, but accessible by a footbridge over the lock cut from a wide section of the Thames Path towpath on the southern bank as well as walkways on the lock gates. Thirdly, a walkway links to Wheatley's Ait upstream, across the weir, but this is closed to the public. The quite long, thin island is inaccessible from Sunbury-on-Thames where it faces a long section of public riverbank, a few private conservation area Victorian terraces with moorings and two pubs also with moorings.

Die Insel ist unbewohnt aber über eine Fußgängerbrücke vom Ufer sowie über die Schleusentore zugänglich. Eine weitere Brücke verbindet die Insel mit Wheatley’s Ait flussaufwärts, doch diese Verbindung ist nicht öffentlich zugänglich. Auf der Insel wachsen Bäume, Farne und Brombeerbüsche. Der Middle Thames Yacht Club und eine private Bootsreparaturwerkstatt nutzen die Insel. (de)

| - Sunbury Lock Ait ist ein Werder in der Themse in England am Sunbury Lock zwischen Walton-on-Thames und Sunbury-on-Thames, Surrey. Die Insel ist unbewohnt aber über eine Fußgängerbrücke vom Ufer sowie über die Schleusentore zugänglich. Eine weitere Brücke verbindet die Insel mit Wheatley’s Ait flussaufwärts, doch diese Verbindung ist nicht öffentlich zugänglich. Die Insel gab es, bevor die Schleuse gebaut wurde und der Flusslauf verbreitert und vertieft wurde. Die Insel war früher als Sunbury Church Ait bekannt. Dann kaufte die City of London Corporation sie von ihren sechs Besitzern, um die 1815 fertiggestellte Schleuse zu bauen. Es gab seit mindestens dem 18. Jahrhundert ein Wehr mit einer Stauschleuse an dieser Stelle. Das alte Schleusenhaus ist heute oberhalb der heutigen Schleuse zu sehen. Auf der Insel wachsen Bäume, Farne und Brombeerbüsche. Der Middle Thames Yacht Club und eine private Bootsreparaturwerkstatt nutzen die Insel. (de)

The quite long, thin island is inaccessible from Sunbury-on-Thames where it faces a long section of public riverbank, a few private conservation area Victorian terraces with moorings and two pubs also with moorings. The lock island existed before the widening and deepening of the lock cut (navigation). It was for centuries known as "Sunbury Church Ait" until the City of London Corporation purchased it from about six proprietors to build the lock, which was completed in 1815, although a flash weir had been in existence since at least the 18th century. The footbridge and old lock house are where the lock originally sat, upstream of the present locks. The Island has trees, ferns and brambles, the Middle Thames Yacht (motor boat) Club and a private boat mending yard. (en)
