We report on neutron scattering measurements on the vortex lattice of the noncentrosymmetric superconductor BiPd. We observe the existence of the intermediate mixed state, a region where Meissner and vortex lattice phases coexist, which is a feature of low $\kappa$ Type-II superconductors. Following this, we obtain an estimate of the value of $\kappa$ using the extended London model, which confirms the expectation that $\kappa$ should be small. Finally, we find that the temperature dependence of the vortex lattice form factor fits well to a model designed to describe singlet-triplet mixing in non-centrosymmetric superconductors, which may shed light on the question of the gap structure in BiPd.
