Burnopfield is a village in County Durham, in England. It is situated north of Stanley and Annfield Plain, close to the River Derwent and is 564 feet above sea level. There are around 5,000 inhabitants in Burnopfield. It is located 10 miles from Newcastle upon Tyne and 15 miles from Durham.
==Etymology==
The name ''Burnopfield'' probably comes from the Old English meaning "field by the valley stream", although local legend says that the village got its name after an attempted Scottish invasion of England was foiled by literally ''burning up the fields'' to stop the advancing armies. In the 19th century, Burnopfield was usually referred to as ''the Leap'', or in local dialect, as ''the Loup'', after the area of Burnopfield named ''Bryan's Leap''.
