In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Boreham like this:
BOREHAM, a hamlet 1 mile SE of Warminster, in Wilts. A church was erected here in 1865. Boreham House here is the property of Sir F. D. Astley, Bart. An earthwork in the vicinity, called the Berries, is a vestige of a Roman station on the road from Old Sarum to Bath; and has yielded Roman pottery and many coins.
Boreham is now part of WILTSHIRE Unitary Authority. Click here for graphs and data of how WILTSHIRE has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Boreham itself, go to Statistics.
