Brian Robert Broughton M.R.S.H. began his working life in the last livery stable to operate in Hobart, Tasmania. He then served as an able seaman (A. B.) in the last cargo-carrying squarerigged ship to visit the port, spending three of his ten years at sea in that vessel and rounding Cape Horn three times.
He spent his life as a horseman, seaman, shepherd, rigger, cabman, cl erk, hotel keeper and safety inspector and finally as a State health inspector and five years in charge of Tasmania's workplace inspectorate.
