Henry Broadwood (8 August 1795 – 1878)[1] was a British Conservative politician.[2]
After unsuccessfully contesting the 1835 general election for Bridgwater, Broadwood became Conservative Member of Parliament (MP) for the same seat at a by-election in 1837—caused by the resignation of John Temple Leader. He then held the seat until 1852 when he did not seek re-election.[2][3]
