Nostalgic memories of Broom's local history

Share your own memories of Broom and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

My family moved to Broom because we had family there. We lived at the Camp for a while and my mum made a home out of two of the buildings. My dad worked for Mr Ted Atkins, running the farm side of the Mill. I was very happy in Broom and after 53 years living on Anglesy I still call it my home.. Family long gone now, but still visit and keep in touch with old friends. I sometimes stay at the Broom Hall Hotel which I remember as a Youth Hostel. Hazel Roberts (nee Dorrington).
I have fond memories of agricultural camp at Broom in August 1954. I would love to know what happened to the camp and any history relating to it. Can anyone help please? Pat Partridge
Help required. My GGGrandfather lived in Broom in 1825 and was a miller and I believe his wife was a baker. I would love to hear from anyone who can tell me where the mill was situated or any of the history of Broom at that time. If you can supply any information please contact me at rogersavage@spc-msa.freeserve.co.uk Thanks for taking the time to read this note. Roger
