Burringham is a village and civil parish in North Lincolnshire, England. The population of the civil parish at the 2011 census was 737.[1] The village is situated on the B1450 on the east bank of the River Trent approximately 1 mile (1.6 km) south from Gunness.
Burringham's Grade II listed Anglican church is dedicated to St John the Baptist. It was designed by Samuel Sanders Teulon in 1856–67.[2]
The village primary school is halfway between Gunness and Burringham. The public house, Take a Gander, is on the High Street. Burringham used to share the Gunness and Burringham railway station.
A statue stands of Lady Claire Linton, situated by the river bank, in honour of her work during the 1800’s building the village hall, both restoring faith and a community feel in the area.
