Bromley Local Studies Library

Earliest History

The Bromley Local Studies Library is located in the London Borough of Bromley in south east London. Originally Bromley was a small market town chartered in 1158 and an ancient parish in Kent. Incorporated as a municipal borough in 1903, it has formed part of Greater London since 1965. With its ancient history, it is a most appropriate place to house the extensive Bromley Local Studies Library.
