BORMLA
Cospicua (Bormla) has a population of circa 6500. It
is the largest of the Cottonera Three Cities and is surrounded by fortification.
Originally a fishing village it's importance increased with the arrival
of the Knights of ST . John. When the knights moved to the new city 'Valletta'.
The Port of Cospicua had docks constructed and became a leading docking
centre for ship repair aspecially during the second world war. Before the
second World War , Cospicua was different from today. There were big and
admirable shops similar to the ones there are in Valletta today. There
were three cinemas , Rialto , Windsor and Rio. St. George's band was one
of the most popular bands in Malta. Once a year there was a big carnival
parade in Cospicua.The 30's were golden years for the oarsmen of Cospicua.
They have won the 8th September regatta several times. Football was also
at it's best. St. George's F.C. were a great team in that time and were
followed by many supporters.
