BROMSHALL, (Staffordshire) a little to the S. W. of Uttoxeter, was anciently the estate of the Staffords, then of the Erdeswicks; but in the R. of Hen. VII. was decreed to Sir Robert Willoughby, Ld. Brook, and others, claiming as heirs of the Staffords; and it is, or was lately, in the family of Grevil, descended from that Ld. The Verneys family had their seat here in the Rs. of Hen. III. Edw. I. and Edw. II.
