Art Deco School: Frome Community College, Bath Road, Frome, Somerset
According to www.schoolsnet.com the college was founded as a secondary school in 1921 which fits in with the Art Deco style. Either side of the central entrance are two long wings and the google satellite shows they extend around the building to form a central quadrangle. In 1945 it became a grammar school and in 1974 the three-tier system which was established in the Frome area.

It may be tucked away along Gipsy Lane but there is plenty of room for a car park and playing fields. http://www.fromerfc.org/

Merlin Theatre, Frome
Opened in 1974, the Merlin Theatre is part of the Frome Community College campus. It is used by both the college and the wider community. The standing stones are part of the Ecos Amphitheatre, an open air performance area beside the theatre which opened in 1992.
Seen here in a rather stormy light, weather warnings had caused the open air show we had come to see to be moved next door into the dry. Always useful to have a plan B.
