The former Frome Westway Co-op is now completely cleared.

As seen from this photo of the interior taken August 8, there is little sign of the supermarket and post office it once housed.

The Westway, which was built in 1979, has a total of just over 66,000 square feet of retail area. Now three large retail areas are vacant - the space opposite the Cordero Lounge which was due to host Peacocks, the former M&Co site opposite, which is now being used as a pop-up shop run by Frome Rotary groups and the former Co-op.
