Borenore is a small rural community located 14 kilometres (8.7 miles) west of Orange along The Escort Way, in the central western region of New South Wales.
[4] The original spelling and pronunciation of Bora-Nora is said to have been altered on maps made in Sydney and became Borenore.
Wentworth held an area that extended from Boree to Mount Canobolas to Toogong to Borenore.
An entry in his journal dated 5 April 1835:[4] The area would be used by Mitchell as the assembly location for his second, third and fourth expeditions.
On his second expedition to the Darling and Bogan Rivers, Michell met the main party there; it had come from Parramatta, under the command of Mitchell's second-in-command, his Assistant Surveyor, James Larmer.
[6] The Borenore area was the homeland of a Wirajuri man, Yuranigh, who Mitchell described in his journal as his "guide, companion, counsellor and friend".
