Bulmershe Manor

Bulmershe Manor is a large house dating back to the late 16th century, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of brick with Bath stone dressings and has an old tile cross-gabled roof. The visible elements include a flint plinth with a moulded stone capping, moulded stone strings at floor levels, brick hoodmolds over windows, stone coped gables with ball finials (some missing), one cut-down chimney, and others missing. The architectural layout is a "T" shape. The house stands two storeys high with attics.

The northeast front features a central gabled bay with a three-light stone mullioned attic window and single stone-framed lights on the lower floors, flanked by four-light stone mullioned, transomed windows, all with leaded lights. Bonded stone quoins are also present. An old lead hopper head and downpipe are visible on the left side.

The southeast front is irregular, with a gable to the right, and a stone porch positioned near the center, featuring a three-light stone mullioned window above. To the left of the porch, the house has been partly rebuilt with two irregular bays of stone mullioned windows. The porch, dating to circa 1600, has a stone front with flanking fluted pilasters on panelled plinths, incorporating diamonds in the panels, and supporting an entablature with a triglyph and rounded frieze that projects forward over the pilasters. There's a blocking course with stone bases over the pilasters, a central arched opening with an architrave supported on springers, and an old ledged door with moulded cover fillets. The sides of the porch are brick with stone front bonded in, each side displaying a single light in a stone frame.

The interior is notable for its very fine half-turn newel staircase, contemporary with the house, comprising eight flights from the ground floor to the attic. Key features include large solid baulk treads and risers, large carved and turned balusters, a plain, deep-section handrail, and a carved rosette motif in the frieze. The dining room incorporates 17th-century panelling, likely brought in from elsewhere, featuring a carved frieze with a dentilled cornice, and a linenfold panelled door within a heavily moulded architrave. A moulded stone fireplace is set within a carved wood surround and over mantel, carved in a similar style to the frieze, but the over mantel is a later addition. A central large plain ceiling beam with plain joists remains exposed. The sitting room features a stone fireplace with a three-centred arch with large roll moulds on the jambs, a carved mantel, and chevron-decorated spandrels. Additionally, heavy principal ceiling joists and one very large diagonal beam are visible in one corner, alongside smaller secondary joists.
