Curiosity Street, I would be compelled to wander down there, all individual private businesses no doubt.

A fantastic cake shop down there Maurice :) Yes, almost all independent shops. I think there is a Boot's Opticians though!

How nice that the young lady turned her head for you which adds a great deal to this splendid image Rosa.

Thank you Jeff...it was also good that it was a Bank Holiday, so not many people in the street as only the cafes were open.

Unusual and ...convenient name for a street! ;-)
It looks very interesting, Rosa...I'm sure I will definitely find something to buy...
I love the way you framed the image and the lady with her dog make the place more alive...a lovely street with nice houses and shops, of course!;-)

Convenient but not true Adele ;o) There is a great book shop in the street and there was a vinyl record shop, but it was so successful that they have moved to larger premises....My brother's favourite shop! Thank you for your kind comments. Have a good day.

A lovely capture. I'm not really a fan of shopping but this street is very appealing especially if there is a tempting cake shot.

I hope the lack of people is due to your patience and not lack of customers, I'm surprised H&S haven't had the gully covered over. A bit chilly this evening as it got dark

It was taken on Bank Holiday Monday Peter, so most of the shops were closed, even my fave cake shop! A beautiful morning here! Have a nice day.

It's a con, Rosa. ;-)
I'd love to wander down this street, searching for something really unusual, which I'm sure I'd find. I love the stone paving and the drainage gully in the centre of the street.
4 years ago.
Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Amelia club
You would definitely find something Amelia. A good job most of the shops were closed on this visit...just window shopping for me :) The leat carries water from a stream beneath the church just up the road. Not sure where it goes after that though!

I love these old medieval style streets with the close together buildings and no cars! This looks to be a splendid example, although as others have intimated, I bet nothing is cheap there!

A charming image Rosa............I love the lone window shopper with her dog!

Such a shame the cake shop was closed - you almost lost a star for that :-))

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Keith Burton club
Just window shopping for me on that visit Keith. It was Bank Holiday Monday. I think you would be pleasantly surprised at the interesting shops along Cheap Street. A lovely book shop and bakery!

I should have sent word to the cake shop that I was coming!! Very pleased you like the picture and thanks for not deducting the star ;-))

Lovely and lively corner, full of shops, signs and colours.
The human (and animal …) presence gives for strength to the photo.
All the best

Hi Rosa

I really like this picture!

Great composition here. You timed the lady and her dog perfectly to bring the street to life.

Best Wishes, and a good weekend
Peter

PS, I was looking for the knickers, but couldn't find them!

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Peter_Private_Box club
Hi Peter,

The knickers were not in this street ;-))
Frome has become a very lively and arty town with lots of individual shops. Some of them last and some don't, but there always seems to be someone ready to replace them.

Thank you very much for your lovely comments.

Best wishes, Rosa.
