Burwarton is a small village and civil parish in Shropshire, England.
Local governance is provided through the 'grouped' Parish Council for Aston Botterill, Burwarton and Cleobury North, and the parish falls within the Brown Clee Division of the Shropshire Unitary Council. There is no village meeting place, but the combined parishes share the facilities of the Village Hall at Cleobury North. The Burwarton Parish embraces most of the "home estate" around Burwarton House. This rises westward from the main Bridgnorth-Ludlow road, passing north–south through the village, up to the ridge summit of Brown Clee Hill. Burwarton House is the seat of Viscount Boyne, whose family gives its name to the village pub, the Boyne Arms.
