Burniere is a settlement near Bodieve on the outskirts of Wadebridge in north Cornwall, England, United Kingdom.[1] The manor of Burniere was mentioned in Domesday Book (1086) when it was held from the Bishop of Exeter by Richard son of Thorold. There were 26 households, land for 12 ploughs, 60 acres of pasture and 10 of woodland; its value was unchanged from the reign of King Edward at 40 shillings (£2 sterling).[2]

In 1879 the owner of the manor was Mr John Allnut.[3]
