Burwell, Cambridgeshire

Burwell /ˈbɜːrwɛl/ is a large fen-edge village and civil parish in Cambridgeshire, England, about 10 miles (16 km) north-east of Cambridge. It lies on the south-eastern edge of The Fens, a large area of relatively flat former marshland close to sea level, and covers the majority of Cambridgeshire and neighbouring Lincolnshire. The fens to the west of the village are drained with the help of the man-made Cambridgeshire Lode waterways, including Burwell Lode which has been important in the growth of the village.
