Burniston is a small village and civil parish in North Yorkshire, England, lying a few miles north of the coastal town of Scarborough on the fringe of the North York coast and within easy reach of the North York Moors. Its setting gives a mix of gently rolling agricultural land and short drives to beaches and moorland, so it feels both rural and coastal at once.
Historically a farming community that expanded modestly in the 19th and 20th centuries, Burniston today combines local services and village institutions with a significant number of residents who commute to nearby towns or work in tourism; holiday accommodation and small businesses play a part in the local economy. Social life centres on the village hall, church and community groups, keeping a distinctly village atmosphere while being close to Scarborough’s amenities.
