The name "Burwell" is of Anglo-Saxon origin and refers to a fort located close to a spring . The first record of the name in the area dates from 1060 and the village is recorded in the Domesday Book under the spellings Burewelle, Burwella and Burwelle. A spring is situated in the south of the village close to the remains of the 12th-century Burwell Castle, although there is evidence of previous settlement on or near the castle site.
