Boroughby

Boroughby (archaically, the Manor of Boroughby[1]) was an area lying adjacent to Peterborough city centre, immediately to the north of Westgate, in the present-day county of Cambridgeshire in the United Kingdom.

Monk's Tithe Barn was built at Boroughby in 1307. In 1892, the mediaeval barn was destroyed "for the sake of its materials and for the ground on which it stood."[2]
