A short history of Frome
The name Frome comes from an ancient Celtic word describing the brisk flow of the river. Aldhelm built a church in 685, the oldest sign of Saxon settlement at Frome. In 701 the name was first set down, when Pope Sergius permitted Aldhelm to found a monastery beside the river. Æthelstan called a witenagemot at Frome in 934 and King Eadred died there on 23 November 955. At the Domesday Survey the manor was held by King William and was the chief settlement of the biggest and richest hundred in Somerset. A survey of 1392 recorded tentergrounds and five fulling mills, showing the growth of cloth making. In 1477 Ankarette Twynho was taken from the Old Nunnery at Lower Keyford. The centre has 365 listed buildings, with The Blue House and the former Rook Lane Congregational Chapel graded I.
