Catherine Hill but NOT Cheap Street finds a place of best places to visit on Somerset Day
By Susie Watkins 9th May 2022
11 May is Somerset Day and for the sixth year in a row residents of the county are being encouraged to fly the flag for all things Zumerset.
However, although Frome is key to the formation of Somerset, it seems a bit overlooked as everyone is urged to get out and explore the best the county has to offer.
Somerset Day is even named for a Frome event. It was the date given when the men of arms gathered at Egbert's Stone near Selwood, just outside Frome to move then to fight a decisive victory, possibly over the border in Wiltshire, in Edington, over Guthrum's Danish army. But on a special Somerset Day interactive map only three places of interest make it, well interesting.
One is Catherine Hill, another a local jeweller and the third it is marked because Somerset Farmers Markets come to town
On Somerset Day residents are encouraged to engage with their history, heritage and environment. To see the trail map on offer click HERE:
