Map of the UK

Burringham & Gunness sits on the west bank of the River Trent in North Lincolnshire, England, directly opposite Scunthorpe. The ward is largely low-lying and riverside, with flood defences, slipways and pleasant stretches of riverside path that reflect its long relationship with the Trent and historic river trade.

Locally the area feels distinctly rural and community‑focused: agriculture remains important, while many residents also commute to nearby industry and services in Scunthorpe. Small village halls, pubs and seasonal events underpin a tight‑knit social life, and the riverside setting gives the ward a mix of quiet countryside character and practical links to the industrial past of the region.
