Situated approximately 15 miles southeast of Cambridge, it is nestled in the picturesque countryside of East Anglia. The parish covers an area of around 6 square miles and is home to a population of just over 200 residents.

The village itself is characterized by its charming and idyllic setting, with many traditional thatched cottages and historic buildings dotting its landscape. The centerpiece of Burrough Green is the All Saints Church, a grade II listed building dating back to the 13th century, which adds to the village's historic appeal.

The community in Burrough Green is close-knit and friendly, with various social events and activities organized throughout the year. The village has a vibrant local pub, The Bull Inn, which serves as a popular gathering spot for residents and visitors alike.

Surrounding the village are expansive fields and meadows, providing ample opportunities for outdoor activities such as walking, cycling, and horse riding. The area is also known for its equestrian heritage, with several horse trainers and stables located nearby.
