For over four decades Bull Mill, on the banks of the River Wylye, has been a vibrant centre for visual arts in South Wiltshire. It was founded by Alexander Thynn, the 7th Marquess of Bath, who sadly died in April 2020.

The artists and craftspeople who now have studios and workshops here practice a range of arts including: painting, drawing, printmaking, jewellery, sculpture, gilding and antique restoration.

Artists and makers at Bull Mill Arts warmly welcome you to our Winter Open Studios and Bazaar from 2nd - 10th December 2023. Visit the news page for more information.

There has been industry at Bull Mill since before the 10th century. Parts of the present building date back to the 1600's. During the 19th century it was a silk mill. The main mill was demolished before the first World War after falling into disuse.

Remaining are the mill house, cottages, storerooms, and stables which have been converted into studios, workshops and living accommodation for artists and their families. In this tranquil setting it is difficult to imagine the large factory that once stood here, employing hundreds of people.
