 * Do we have a year for the completion of the house? You should say the oldest part of the house dates to 1567–75, but there was a manor before this.
 * Probably the closest thing to a completion date would be when the north and west wings were replaced - 1819. Done--DavidCane (talk) 22:35, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
 * "It has been a home to a number of members of parliament for Maidstone or for Kent." Can you please list some of the most notable owners and the dates they owned it as an effective summary.
 * Do we have an architectural style for this building which could be noted in the infobox? The infobox seems a bit empty. Please add the building dates at least.
 * Added the four MPs who have articles into the lead.
 * It does not really fit into a particular style of architecture; none is specifically identified in the listing details.
 * I have added the dates into the box.--DavidCane (talk) 22:35, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

"The estate is private property and is not usually open to the public,". Do we know the name of the current owner?♦ Dr. Blofeld  16:59, 28 August 2011 (UTC)
 * The Boughton Monchelsea Place and Stately-homes.com websites list the owners as the Kendrick family. I was in two minds as to whether this should be included in the article, but I suppose, as they advertise this on the websites, there shouldn't be a problem with it going into the article. Thanks for the review.--DavidCane (talk) 22:35, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

No problem, thanks for addressing the points.♦ Dr. Blofeld  08:48, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
