A collection of historical and local information
on the two parishes of Bures St Mary and Bures Hamlet
from 1900 to 2008.
Currently there are
approx 260 pages on-line
Possibly the oldest picture of Bures circa 1850
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
Possibly the largest village web site
in the UK.
If you cannot find what you are looking for then visit the
Site Map for a comprehensive list of available pages.
