Burton Green


Burton Green is a village and civil parish in the Warwick district, in the county of Warwickshire, England, some southwest of Coventry and 3.5 miles northwest of Kenilworth. It is mostly residential, surrounded by farmland and has a village hall, a primary school and a pub called the 'Peeping Tom', now a Pub/Restaurant "Hickory's Smokehouse". The civil parish was created from part of Stoneleigh in 2 April 2012.
It is situated directly on the border with Coventry and is contiguous with the city's Tile Hill Village and Westwood Heath districts.
Burton Green comprises four roads: Red Lane, Hob Lane, Hodgetts Lane and Cromwell Lane.
There is a disused water tower off Cromwell Lane, which has now been converted into a private home.

High Speed 2

The route for the proposed high-speed rail line, called High Speed 2, from London to Birmingham will run underneath the centre of Burton Green in a 1.8km tunnel, realigning the disused rail route that is currently a Greenway.
