The Bury, Grade II* listed building in Hemel Hempstead, England.

The Bury exhibits a Neoclassical design with a stucco exterior, featuring a hipped Welsh slated roof and two box dormers spanning two storeys and attics.

William Ginger, a local attorney, constructed The Bury in 1790 after demolishing the previous manor house, which remained in his family until 1797.

The central pedimented porch displays Tower of the Winds capitals, while the interior presents traditional elements including ovolo panelling and elliptical arches.

The building, located at coordinates 51.7576° N and -0.473747° W, currently serves administrative functions under the management of Dacorum Borough Council.

The hall contains a distinctive staircase with cut spandrels, turned balusters, and a six-paneled entrance door complemented by a traceried fanlight.
