Great Bromley Men's Social Club

Description

A small group of men who meet together socially on a regular basis to pursue similar interests of playing snooker, cards and other indoor activities. Originally formed during the 1920's, the current club was reformed in 1971 a nd has been meeting regularly ever since. A friendly welcome is ensured to those who like to exchange banter or discuss current events and the more serious aspects of day to day living.
