The Frome Super Market

*We were the guests of the Frome Town Council. 

The weekend that we went to Frome wasn't just a random weekend.  
It coincided nicely with their monthly Frome Super Market which is the first Sunday of each month.
(This means you can go tomorrow September 1st!!)

Frome Supermarket

And it's called Super Market (with a little tongue in cheek) because it basically takes over the whole town centre.
Picture a flea market, farmers market, artisan market, craft sale and suitcase sale all in one.  It stretches all the way from the Cheese and Grain, across the River Frome, along Market Place and up Catherine Hill.  It's open from 10am to 2pm and I'll let the photos do most of the talking on this one.

You'll probably want to plan your trip to coincide with the Frome Super Market.
And don't worry about the shops being closed on Sunday, they open up for this special day.

Be sure to check out the Frome Event Calendar for their many other special events
including the annual Frome Festival and Cobble Wobble.

And I have one more word for you.  Cheese.
Saturday, September 14th is the Frome Agricultural & Cheese Show!
With over 350 trade stands, you can get your fill of cheese and then check out the animals.


I just might see you there.

  3. I love markets like this! I hardly ever purchase anything, but browsing through it all is so much fun! Those umbrellas are adorable! You'd certainly stand out from the black umbrella crowd in London with one of those!
