Burghley House is a grand 16th century English country house near the town of Stamford, Lincolnshire, England. Its park was laid out by Capability Brown.
The Lincolnshire county boundary crosses between the town and the house which, in fact, is located in the ancient Soke of Peterborough, once a part of Northamptonshire, but now in Cambridgeshire; and is administered as part of the City of Peterborough unitary authority.
