Famous Boreham landmarks to explore while you travel at Boreham
New Hall School
One mile to the northwest of the village is New Hall School, once a palace of Henry VIII known as The Palace of Beaulieu. The estate on which it was built – the manor of Walhfare in Boreham – was granted to the Canons of Waltham Abbey in 1062. The king rebuilt the house in brick at a cost of £17,000 in 1517 and gave his new palace the name ‘Beaulieu’
Boreham airfield and circuit
A forest near the village was felled in 1943 to build a military airfield. It hosted elements of the 394th Medium Bomb Group and the 315th Troop Carrier Group flying Dakotas. After the Second World War the three runways were adapted into a roughly triangular motor racing circuit. It was bought by Ford in 1955 for use as a development test track.
Boreham Interchange
To the west of Boreham lies the A12 Boreham Interchange, at which is a service facility with a BP petrol station, a McDonald’s restaurant, and a Premier Inn motel.
