About

Frome East ward encompasses the historic core and immediate eastern neighbourhoods of Frome. The area centres on the steep, winding lanes that climb away from the River Frome, lined with buildings constructed from the local honey-coloured stone. This includes the commercial heart along Cheap Street and Stony Street, known for its central gutter stream. Residential streets extend eastward, mixing Victorian terraces with more modern housing developments on the ward's fringes.

The ward is home to key civic buildings including the Town Hall and the Memorial Theatre. A notable feature is the weekly outdoor market held in the Market Yard, a tradition maintained for centuries. Open green space is provided by the recreational fields at Mary Baily Playing Fields, bordering the river. The area's topography is defined by its position in the Mendip Hills, with views across the town's distinctive roofscape.
