Bore Place

Bore Place was the country seat of the manor of Milbroke in Kent. It was originally named after the Bore family who owned the estate in the reign of Henry III. It subsequently passed through the Alphew, Read, Willoughby, Hyde and Streatfield families.[1] It is now owned by the Commonwork Trust – a charity which runs the estate as a dairy farm, market garden, conference centre and education facility.[2]
