Wonderful Britain

Cheap Street in Frome, Somerset is one of Europe's best preserved medieval shopping streets. It retains a water course down the centre of the street, a reminder of times before mains sewerage. The street is named after the word ceap, which originally meant "to sell." Today there are shops offering a wide range of goods and services. One of those is "The Settle" tearooms and restaurant. I have been there several times and have had myself, and heard from others, nothing but good things about the place. Their selection of fresh cakes and pastries is good, hot snacks very varied and the restaurant food, though not the cheapest, is of good quality and presented nicely. Everything is made freshly, so don't be in too much of a hurry when you visit. The service is good and friendly.
