Burwell, Cambridgeshire, is a village and civil parish situated some ten miles north‑east of Cambridge on the south‑east edge of the Fens. The area is characterised by its flat fenland landscape and is drained by a network of Cambridgeshire lodes, including the Burwell Lode, which has historically been a growth factor for the settlement. According to the 2011 census the population was 6,309, and a 2019 estimate placed it at 6,417, indicating a modest increase over the decade. The village’s location within the CB 25 postal district places it within the broader Cambridge area, while retaining a distinct rural character. The presence of waterways and the surrounding fenland contribute to the local setting and may appeal to those seeking a quieter, rural environment close to larger towns.
