  • Frome man convicted of murdering woman A Frome man has been convicted of murdering a woman in Portway on the night she planned to end their relationship last year. Kieron Goodwin, 33, denied killing 29-year-old Olivia Wood but was found guilty by a jury at Bristol Crown Court after a five-week trial. He was also convicted of 15 other offences committed against Olivia and three other women over a five-year period, including rape, intentional strangulation and controlling and coercive behaviour. The court heard Goodwin had been in a relationship with Olivia for fewer than three months when he fatally strangled her on 30th July. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.

  • Frome’s history kept alive at town’s independent museum Behind the doors of 1 North Parade, Frome Museum is keeping the town’s history alive with fascinating exhibitions and events for all ages. Based in the town centre, the museum is independently run by enthusiastic volunteers who are keen to share Frome’s heritage. The museum’s origins lie in the 1956 Frome Historical Exhibition, which led to the formation of the Frome Society in 1958 — the forerunner to today’s museum. Today, the museum is the proud owner of the iconic Frome Literary and Scientific Institution building, which opened in 1869. Michael Maggs, who has been chair for the past 18 months, has a personal link to the museum, with one of the exhibitions featuring his grandfather’s pharmacy, formerly based at 20 Bath Street.

  • Musicians launch Frome’s own record label A new record label has launched in Frome to support musicians in the town and across the South West. IL Records has been founded by two local residents, Jonah Brody and Henry Gibbs, who bring professional music industry experience to the venture. The pair are passionate about helping local artists—particularly young musicians—release albums and take the next steps in their careers. “There are so many musicians in Frome and across the South West,” said Jonah, a professional musician and composer with 20 years’ touring experience, including performing with bands like Depeche Mode as a keyboard and bass player. “Frome has long been a magnet for artists, a town where creativity is a way of life. IL Records is here to keep that story moving and to make sure the music being made here finds the audience it deserves. “The main reason for launching the label was because when I was starting out, it was amazing when you found someone who would be like, ‘Wow that’s interesting’ let me give you a boost. When you are starting, you want to get signed by someone but that’s often further down the line or harder these days. I am trying to give back a little bit and give people a little encouragement to keep on doing what they are doing.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.

  • Campaigners urge community support in final bid to save Packsaddle Fields A local campaign group is calling for community support in a last-ditch effort to save the green fields at Packsaddle from housing development. People for Packsaddle, who have led the campaign to protect the site on Frome’s northern edge, are preparing to contest a developer’s appeal after Somerset Council rejected a plan to build 74 houses on the land. A public hearing is due to take place in August. The group has registered as a ‘Rule 6 Party’, meaning it will take an active role in the appeal process – submitting evidence, questioning the developer, and presenting its case alongside the council.
