Knowbury is a small village near Ludlow in Shropshire, England. It is located in the civil parish of Caynham.

It is near to Clee Hill Village and had a part-time Post Office - now closed.

There were two adjacent public houses in the village, on Hope Bagot Lane - the Penny Black, and the Bennett's End. The Penny Black is now closed, though the Bennett's End continues to be a pub.[1]

The Elan aqueduct passes through the area and crosses the Colly Brook valley (including Cumberley Lane) on the impressive Bennett's End Aqueduct.
