About

The Burton & Airport area sits on the northern edge of the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole conurbation, close to the village of Hurn and the settlement of Burton. The landscape is a mix of low-density housing, farms and business sites clustered around the airfield, with small local shops and a village hall serving residents. Bournemouth Airport occupies a central place in the ward and shapes land use: passenger facilities and light industrial estates sit alongside agricultural fields and public footpaths that cross the parish.

The airfield opened as RAF Hurn before the Second World War and later became the civil airport now known as Bournemouth Airport, which still handles scheduled services and general aviation. Local life reflects that history and function, with businesses that support aviation alongside traditional rural activities. Road and public transport links connect the area to the wider conurbation while retaining a pattern of scattered settlements and parcels of farmland immediately surrounding the airport.
