Bulley is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Churcham, in the Forest of Dean district, in Gloucestershire, almost 7 miles (11 km) west of the city of Gloucester and about 1 mile (1.6 km) north of the village of Churcham. In 1931 the parish had a population of 134.[1]

The Church of England parish church of St Michael and All Angels has been a dependent chapelry of St Andrew's parish church, Churcham since at least AD 1100.[2] Both St Andrew's and St Michael's are now members of the Forest Edge group of churches.[3]

St Michael's building is Norman.[4] A Perpendicular Gothic window on the south side of the nave is a fifteenth-century addition.[5] In 1886 the building was restored under the direction of the architect Sidney Gambier-Parry.[4] The church is a Grade I listed building.[5]
