Wine Street, Frome, BA11 1EN

Positioned neatly on the corner of Wine Street and High Street is No. 3 Wine Street—a former weavers cottage, shop, and now a Grade II Listed cottage within the heart of Frome's conservation area. These streets were some of the first established by The Sheppard family, responsible for developing Frome's "Newtown” between the 1730s-1740s.

Beautiful exposed beams and small attic doors all add to the abundance of character of this home.
