The 1916 Widnes by-election was held on 22 May 1916.
The by-election was held due to the incumbent Conservative MP, William Walker resigning to permit him to donate his entire thoroughbred racing stock to create a National Stud in an arm's-length transaction.
He was returned unopposed at the by-election.
