In 1865, Burrell contested East Sussex unsuccessfully.[3] He succeeded his older brother Percy as baronet in 1876 and entered the British House of Commons in the same year, sitting for New Shoreham, the constituency his father and brother had also represented before, until its abolishment in 1885.[5] Burrell was High Sheriff of Sussex in 1871.[3]

Family edit

On 10 June 1847, he married Dorothea Jones, youngest daughter of Reverend John Applethwaite Jones, at St James's Church, Piccadilly.[6] They had four daughters and two sons.[2] Burrell died aged 71, at West Grinstead Park[2] and was buried at Shipley, Sussex. He was succeeded in the baronetcy by his oldest son Charles.[2]
