Burpham

village

Burpham is a pretty village on the eastern edge of Guildford, set on a hill overlooking the River Wey and the surrounding countryside. Though now part of greater Guildford, Burpham retains its village character with a historic church, The Green Man pub, and local shops. The Wey towpath passes below the village, offering access to Bowers Lock and Triggs Lock. The village provides a quieter alternative to central Guildford while remaining within easy reach of all the town's amenities.
