''"Chuck ee larnce aways - you'm could slay emenies with thoi breath!" - [[Foremole (Mariel, Bellmaker, Martin)|Foremole]]''

'''Burgo''' was a fat male mole resident of [[Redwall Abbey]]. He enjoyed eating wild garlic, but he wore a clothespin on his nose to avoid its horrible smell. Unfortunately, he ate so much garlic he could not remove the odor from his person, which caused many to complain of the stench.

Burgo was an old friend of [[Gabriel Quill]] and [[Brother Hubert]], and he, like the other moles, was extremely fond of [[Friar Alder]]'s raspberry cream pudding. He was involved in the rescue of [[Hon Rosie|Rosie Woodsorrel]], and presumably lived at Redwall the rest of his days. He was a minor character - little else is known of him.

===Trivia===
*In the extract from the records of [[Redwall Abbey]] at the end of the U.S. edition of'' Mariel'', Saxtus says that "I think [[Bagg]] will become the new [[Foremole]]." This is inconsistent as Bagg is an otter. Apparently seeing this error, when [[Brian Jacques]] and his radio troupe made the unabridged recording, the line was changed to: "I think '''Burgo''' will become the new Foremole." Despite this, there is no indication that the Foremole in ''[[Martin the Warrior (book)|Martin the Warrior]]'' or ''[[The Bellmaker]]'' was Burgo.

''Not to be confused with [[Burgy]] or [[Burgogg]]''.
