Frome Town Walks
The Frome Town Walks are organised by the Frome Society for
Local Study and take place on the first Sunday in May, June, August, the two
Sundays during the Frome Festival in July, and September. They set off at 2.30
pm outside the Round Tower in Justice Lane and 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 John Birkett-Smith, Dorothy Anne Bryant,
Alastair and Kenneth MacLeay and Janet Millar. Special arrangements for
additional town walks should be made with Alastair MacLeay on 01373 836 595 or
