The Blue House, Cheese & Grain, The library, Feeding the ducks.

The Blue House was originally a school named after the school uniform worn by pupils. The weavers in Frome were engaged in the manufacture of Royal Navy uniforms during the Napoleonic Wars and the same cloth was used at the school.

A grain store and war-time munitions factory has recently opened in Frome as a cutural centre. It now houses the many and various markets including the Farmers Produce Market, the W.I. Market and assorted Flea Markets as well as concerts, gigs, stand up comedy etc. It is one of the largest venues in this area and a number of excellent bands have played the Cheese and Grain, some more than once! These include: Wishbone Ash, Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel, Dr Feelgood (OK so I'm showing off my musical taste a bit!)

Cheese and Grain now has a posh new website - check it out A page about the Cheese & Grain

Opposite the Cheese and Grain stands the Library in its purpose-built site offering all the usual services.

Moving on from the library you cross over the river Frome on which the Canoeing club holds frequent demonstrations and competitions and the children feed the ducks:
