Burringham & Gunness

The Burringham & Gunness ward lies along the western bank of the River Trent in North Lincolnshire, forming a largely rural and industrial landscape. The area is characterised by flat, open farmland interspersed with pockets of residential settlement, with the villages of Burringham and Gunness providing the main population centres. The ward's eastern boundary is dominated by the significant industrial presence of the British Steel works at Scunthorpe, which shapes much of the local economy and skyline.

A network of drainage channels and the straightened course of the Old River Don cross the agricultural land, managing water levels in this low-lying area. The ward includes the isolated hamlet of Burringham Carr, situated amidst fields closer to the river. The single-track Burringham Road, running north from Gunness, serves as a key thoroughfare connecting these communities, with the area's quiet lanes offering views across the Trent towards the Isle of Axholme.
