Incidentally, Shaftesbury Abbey is well worth a look for all you CUK history buffs.
There is a very nice tea shop nearby where you can have refreshments after your visit before heading to Gold Hill, the narrow vertiginous street used in the TV Hovis adverts.

Did you know?
An English monarch died in Frome.
Have lived in the area all my life but didn't know this.
King Athelstan held a witan there in 934 and King Eadred died there in 955.
Of course, England's first true king, Edgar, was crowned down the road in Bath in 973. I remember going to the 1000th anniversary celebrations.
Other local royal connections include Ethelred the Unready (Shaftesbury) through to the present day's royal connections to Gloucestershire.
Not to mention King Alfred who burnt his cakes somewhere on the A361 between Street and Taunton.Tags: None
