I have been to Bromsgrove many times, as my aunt lives near there. There is nothing of note in Bromsgrove. If you boiled down Middle England to a single town, it would be Bromsgrove.

Bromsgrove is an anagram of 'morgve bros', an ancient Roman chain of corpse storage facilities which opened a branch on the site in AD46 and gave the town its name. [citation needed]

Bromyard is mentioned in a charter of c. 840 as Bromgeard ("enclosure where broom or gorse grew" (or perhaps "fenced in by gorse") and in Domesday Book as Bromgerde.[3] 42 villani (villeins, villagers), 9 bordars (smallholders), and 8 slaves were recorded in the Domesday entry, one of the largest communities in Herefordshire.[4]

Garry Roberts (born Garrick Roberts, 16 June 1954, Dublin, Ireland)[1] is the former lead guitarist with the Irish band, The Boomtown Rats, which came into being in 1976.[1] He and Johnnie Fingers (Moylett) had decided to put a band together and, between them, they recruited the other four members, Pete Briquette (bass), Gerry Cott (guitar), Simon Crowe (drums) and singer Bob Geldof.
After The Boomtown Rats broke up in 1986, Roberts worked with Simply Red, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark and Flesh For Lulu in the role of sound engineer on tours in the UK and US. He avoided playing the guitar in public for ten years, after which he and Simon Crowe played together for four years in the rhythm and blues four-piece band The Velcro Flies. After having worked successfully as an Independent Financial Adviser for fifteen years, he had become disillusioned with the life insurance industry and became a central heating engineer to keep himself occupied between gigs. Roberts and Crowe, with Darren Beale, on second lead guitar, and Peter Barton, on bass guitar and lead vocals, are now playing together as Boomtown Rats Roberts and Crowe, and performing material from the Rats' first three albums across Europe and the UK.[1]
He lives in Bromyard, Herefordshire.[2]

spent a lot of time failing to get promoted out of the conference as the sadly no longer extant bromsgrove rovers on premier manager 3. installing wooden seats at the ground and shrewdly selecting advertising hoardings was the summit of my achievements. to my mind it remains linked to similarly anonymous mid-90s conference towns like kettering, yeovil and stevenage, and yet something about bromsgrove captured my attention then, & now this thread
