The Frome Town Walks are organised by the Frome Society for Local Study. To avoid clashing with the major Frome and Artisan Markets, they will take place on the second Sunday in May, June, August and September, and the two Sundays during the Frome Festival in July. They are designed to give an understanding of the development of the history and economy of the town from its foundation in 685 AD by St Aldhelm, through the middle ages to the present day. There is a special emphasis on Frome’s listed buildings with their broad range of religious and vernacular architecture.
The guides are Cliff Bawden, Dorothy Anne Bryant, Alastair and Kenneth MacLeay and Janet Millar. Arrangements for special town walks should be made with Alastair MacLeay on 01373 836 595 or info@fsls.org.uk Copies of the Frome Heritage Trail will be available to buy, price £3 each.
The dates of the walks in 2014 are as follows:
10 August
14 September
