Description
The market town of Romsey lies on the River Test in Hampshire, on the borders of the New Forest. The mediaeval settlement grew around its wealthy abbey, and the abbey church is still one of the glories of the town today. Woollen and tanning industries also brought prosperity to the town, and the town later became a brewing center. The large country house of Broadlands was built on the abbeys land after the Dissolution of the Monasteries and became home to Prime Minister Palmerston and the nineteenth century and later Lord Mountbatten. Today IBM is based nearby. In A-Z of Romsey author Martin Brisland reveals the history behind Romsey, its streets and buildings, industries and the people connected with the town. Alongside the famous historical connections, he includes some unusual characters, tucked away places and unique events that are less well-known. Readers will discover tales of science and innovation, lifeboats and brewing, honeymooning royalty, presidents and politicians among many other fascinating facts in this A-Z tour of Romseys history. It is fully illustrated with photography and will appeal to all those with an interest in this historic Hampshire town.
