Why Move to Bromsgrove?
This Worcestershire town is in a scenic semi-rural district, with the majority of Bromsgrove’s land having been designated ‘Green Belt’. Bromsgrove has a history dating back to the 9th century. This hard-working town has had a rich and varied contribution to British industry.
Once famous for its cloth and wool production, it later became a major centre for nail making. In 1905 the Longbridge car factory opened, which at one point in time employed 25,000 workers. Today modern Bromsgrove has been economically revitalised by the emergence of new business and technology parks.
Situated within the West Midlands A38 Central Technology Belt, and having a population of around 93,000, the town is perfectly placed as a base for commuters. Located just 13 miles from the large City of Birmingham, Bromsgrove has excellent road links with direct access to Junction 1 of the M42 and Junctions 4 and 5 of the M5.
What’s more, this town is aiming high, and its growth is evident throughout the district.
New housing estates, sporting facilities, business opportunities, and amenities have driven up the employment rate and contributed to enhancing this once rather drab town.
Considering the range and quality of housing available, the rural nature of the area, its close proximity to road and rail connections Bromsgrove has seen a major shift in recent years. It has emerged as a very desirable place to relax, live, and work.
