A collection of historical and local information on the two parishes of
Bures St Mary and Bures Hamlet from the late 1800`s to 2016
Within the three parishes of Bures St Mary, Bures Hamlet and Mount Bures,
there are 116 Listed Buildings. I hope
you enjoy your visit, its aim is to view a selection of the finest buildings
and structures of historic interest within the two parishes.
Hopefully this site will enlighten those, especially new to the village
who may never have heard of the Tannery, Maltings, Cheese Factory, Gas
Works, Workhouse, Victory Hall etc
