Gentle Street ~ Frome

What a lovely streetscape Rosa.
Peaceful week ahead.

Thank you very much Jaap.
I hope your week is good and peaceful.

Beautiful street photos...

Thank you very much Udo.

Not only the cobbles but also the mellow stone make this look so attractive! I guess when you're old and infirm it will be difficult to manage und for younger ones heels are not an option there;-)

Thank you for your kind comments Gudrun. I think your right, not a place for elderly people to live and best to leave the high heels at home ;-))

An excellent couple of shots and good notes too!

Thank you very much Andy.

ABSOLUMENT magnifique et d'une beauté typiquement remarquable avec ces MAGNIFIQUES pierres. .Un rendu d'une exceptionnelle beauté.
Bonne et agréable semaine.

Frome looks so good through your lens Rosa ~ thanks for the info too ~ All the best ~ Nick

Thank you very much Nick. Frome, like Bruton has become an arty and lively place.

Wonderful image.

Wow,ist sind das schöne Ansichten liebe Rosa,schön ist dieser Einblick in diese Gasse mit diesen Steinhäusern und den gepflasterten Steinen,schön sind deine Aufnahmen dazu :))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Nachmittag,ganz liebe Grüße Güni :))

Thank you very much Günter. Your kind comments are much appreciated.

Best wishes and a good new week, Rosa.

wat me in deze foto's aantrok is de naam Frome---een van de beste wielrenners die ook de tourde france wonnen Waarschijnlijk heeft de wielrenner het daar geleerd tegen die steile straten---geweldig ROSALYN

I have heard of him Fred, but I think the only connection is his name.
I believe he was brought up in South Africa.
Have a nice week Fred.

what a beautiful place and image
Happy new week:)

Thank you very much Annemarie.
Have a great new week.

This is almost like stepping back in time Rosa. It is beautiful with the lovely stone walls and cobbled streets. It looks quite a steep climb up that hill.
Two terrific images and I enjoyed your notes that, together with your pictures, conjure up my own images of the romance of the days of the old coaching inns.

Have a great weekend

There are a lot of steps even before you get to the hill Carol, which is quite steep. I have been going to Frome for decades, but I only found this street about 5 years ago! It's not that far from Cheap Street, but I never went up the steps!! Thank you very much for your kind comments.

Wishing you a great week too.

So typical again ! Beautiful views, Rosa !

Thank you very much Ulrich.

This street looks anything but gentle Rosa..........especially on the knees and ankles :-))). It must have been quite difficult getting a coach and and horses up there, especially in the rain or snow!

A well composed image with lovely detail.............I especially like the colour of the stonework of the houses and those lovely cobblestones. Is that a drainage ditch running down the road or a filled in leat? I also like the greenery (and I see there's someone there doing some gardening).

A very nice PiP too.......with a beautiful street lamp.

There are a lot of steps before you even get to the street Keith. Definitely need to watch the knees! I have been there when it was raining and it wasn't at all slippery thank goodness.

I think it's a drain rather than a leat running down the middle of the street. I bet you wanted to use that new word again ;-)) Obviously the spell checker has never heard of it as it keeps underlining it!
We had a chat o the man gardening...he was trying to pull out very deep rooted weeds :-)

Thank you for your kind comments Keith. Have a nice week.

Sound like hard work Rosa.......but worth the effort. I definitely wanted to use the word leat again :-)))

I think the spell-checker on here is more oriented towards US spellings.

Ha ha, yes your right about the spellchecker leaning towards US spellings. Quite annoying for us!

Ich mag diese Architektur. Sehr schön, liebe Rosalyn.

Thank you very much dear Andrea. I am pleased you like it.
Best wishes for a good new week.

Great street Rosa love the cobbles.
HBM have a great week.
TOZ

Thank you very much.
Best wishes & good new week TOZ.
Rosa.

Doesn't look very gentle to me Rosa but a lovely street and a superb capture I especially like the cobbles,
Thank you for posting your image in the group

I guess in that sense, it's not Roger :-)
Thank you very much and have a good new week.

Fine shots of these beautiful historic cobblestone street and the fine architecture of the houses.

Thank you very much for your kind comments Percy.

A lovely street scene I assume the local stone didn't wear very well so granite sets were imported
maybe Groby Granite :)) I hope your week has started well Rosalyn, some heavy rain in the early hours Good night

Thank you Peter. There were, and still are, lots of stone quarries around Frome and on the Mendips, but I don't know where the setts came from. Thunder and rain here las night. Not enough though!

Hermosamente pintorescas estas ancianas casas de piedra que aguantan tan bien el paso del tiempo. La foto principal consigue una perspectiva inmejorable de la sucesión de casas en esa calle tan típica.
Buen martes. Aquí fiesta, celebración de 500 años de la primera circunnavegación a la tierra que consiguió la nave victoria al mando del capitán vasco; Juan Sebastián Elcano.

Thank you for your kind comments Jose Manuel.
Have a good day celebrating the Basque Captains great achievement.

GLORIOUS

Thank you Pam.

I love the perspective looking up the brae, Rosa. The lamp post at the top looks very stylish. Cheers, Joe

Thank you for your kind comments Joe. It's good to see lamps posts in keeping with the architecture. Cheers, Rosa.

I just know I'd be short of breath if I lived here. You have such interesting places to visit in Somerset.

You should see the steps you have to climb even before walking up the hill Amelia! It is possible to access this road from the top and walk down it though! I think I will do that next time :-))

A fascinating street with the cobblestones and the ancient buildings.

Thank you very much George.

It could be a wonderful movie set!!!!!*********

Lovely views of that street !
Thank you Rosalyn.

What a wonderful little street. I guess it's the perfect place for a medieval movie...

Was für ein hübscher Ort mit diesen wunderschönen alten Häusern!
