The picturesque Somerset market town of Frome started holding its first ever folk festival in 2012. The winter weekend festival features some of the top names in English folk.
Situated at the eastern end of the Mendip Hills, Frome boasts steep cobbled streets, old weavers' cottages and historic Georgian buildings as well as the popular entertainment venue The Cheese and Grain which will be the focus of the folk festival.
The festival is the brainchild of West Country music promoter Jan Ayers, who successfully brought a folk festival back to Bristol.
