Burn: what to know before moving day
Most houses face the A19, which is called Doncaster Road through the village, or sit just off it on Burn Lane, Brick Kiln Lane, Park Lane, West Lane, Barff View, Burn Hall Close and Burn Hall Crescent. The Wheatsheaf Inn, the Methodist chapel and the cricket club are on the map, and the village green carries an RAF squadron memorial kept up by the village.
East of the A19 is Burn Airfield, built in 1942 as a Second World War bomber base and now used by Burn Gliding Club. To the west runs the Selby Canal, which the A19 crosses at Burn Bridge. Burn's two listed buildings are a culvert tunnel under the canal and a milestone.

Burn: questions before you book
Is there anywhere to stop a van on the A19 in Burn?
The A19 is the through road, so for a house facing it the side lanes such as Burn Lane or Park Lane may be easier. Tell us which side of the road you are on and whether there is a drive, and the stop is planned before the day.
