Hi Jason,

The local family history group, the Bromsgrove branch of BMSGH, has the Bromsgrove Messenger on-line, for free.  Although about 8 miles away it might be worth trying www.bromsgrovebmsgh.co.uk  You'll need to register first though.

Although the Kidderminster Shuttle, I think from 1870, is the local paper.

Cheers
