Bochym Manor is a historic estate located in Cornwall, England. This magnificent manor house is considered a significant heritage site due to its rich history and architectural significance. Situated in the picturesque village of Cury, near Helston, Bochym Manor stands as a testament to the region's past.

The manor house dates back to the 14th century, with some parts believed to be even older. It was originally built as a medieval hall and has since undergone various renovations and additions over the centuries. The architecture of Bochym Manor is a beautiful blend of different styles, including Tudor and Georgian influences. Its stunning exterior features a mix of stone and brickwork, complemented by charming timber-framed sections.

The interior of Bochym Manor is equally impressive, with well-preserved original features such as grand fireplaces, intricately carved woodwork, and ornate plasterwork. The manor house also boasts an impressive collection of period furniture, artwork, and historical artifacts, providing visitors with a glimpse into the past.

Surrounded by lush gardens and picturesque landscapes, Bochym Manor offers a serene and tranquil atmosphere. The estate also includes a charming courtyard, a beautiful chapel, and a range of outbuildings, all of which contribute to its historical significance.

Today, Bochym Manor serves as a private residence and is not open to the public. However, its architectural beauty and historical importance make it a cherished heritage site in Cornwall.

Mullion Garden - with compass rose and water feature In the year 2000, Mullion village underwent various forms of regeneration. One of improvements involved taking over an overgrown and neglected village green and transforming it into 'Mullion Garden'. 

This area is now a peaceful and beautiful community garden. It is an ideal location for relaxing in the sun. As a feature it has a water fountain set at the centre of a compass rose and surrounded by a long typical Cornish stone  wall which is designed to incorporate a long bench.

'Mullion Garden' was formally opened on 4 July 2002.

The Old Inn - Mullion This photo with a person outside the thatched building gives some indication of the scale of this old 16th century building now used as a public house.

There is newer building alongside and now all part of the pub. When seen side-by-side the difference in scale of the two buildings from different time periods can be seen very clearly.

Recycled Wesleyan Chapel I'm assuming that it's no longer used for the original purpose it was built for in 1810, simply because it looks to have a garage entrance and it has no PW on the map.
