Robert Bromley (1815 – 30 December 1850)[1] was a British Conservative Party politician, the eldest son and heir apparent of Admiral Sir Robert Howe Bromley, 3rd Baronet.

He was elected unopposed[2] as a Member of Parliament (MP) for Southern division of Nottinghamshire at a by-election in April 1849 after the resignation of the Conservative MP Lancelot Rolleston.[3] He died in office on 30 December 1850, aged 35, after less than two years in the House of Commons.[1]
