Not just conservative, but Anglo-Saxon!

“Burley: This notable surname is of Anglo-Saxon origin, and is locational from any of the various places so called, for example Burley in Derbyshire, Rutland, Shropshire and the West Riding of Yorkshire. The name in all cases, derives from the Olde English pre 7th Century “burg”, a fort, and “leah”, a clearing in a wood; hence, “the clearing by a fort”.
