Andrew's church main assets are its 15th Century font, its Tudor chancel
roof, a pleasant churchyard and a 15th Century tower which shows up well
from the Gestingthorpe direction. It also has a 'Green Man' on the font.

St Andrew's
Church is Grade I Listed and has been the church in Bulmer from the
12th Century. As with any very old building there is much work required
to keep it in good order. The cost to provide services and generally
run the church, without carrying out any building work, is over £20,000
per annum. This sum, which does include insurance of the church, is
provided by those attending the church and some other people in the
village. The Parish Council also provides a grant of £650 towards
the grass cutting in the churchyard: this covers about half of the costs
and is given as the churchyard is the cemetery for the parish. |
