Dhunjibhoy Bomanji

Sir Dhunjibhoy Bomanji (1862 – 1 April 1937) was a Parsi shipping magnate, socialite and philanthropist.[1]

Bomanji was one of a wealthy family based in Bombay (now Mumbai), who eventually settled in England, becoming a pillar of British society. He divided his time between India and a house in Windsor and estate in Harrogate.[2][3] Pineheath, the Bomanji's Harrogate house, was sold in 2013.[4][5]
