Oakfield Academy and former site of police station
The school on the left is now known as Oakfield Academy. "Oakfield has educated the children of Frome and surrounding villages since 1941: Frome’s first co-educational, comprehensive community day school. In 1973 the school changed from being a secondary modern comprehensive to a middle school; which catered for 9-13 year old pupils." http://www.oakfieldacademy.co.uk/our-academy/the-academy/ The former site of the police station Image became housing in 2018 - the bus stop in front is still named after the police station - with Stoodley Terrace named after the late PC Kevin Stoodley. Further along The Old Nurseries (shortlisted for Best High Volume New Housing Development at the South West LABC Building Excellence Awards 2019) recalls the fact that the site was nurseries before the police station was built there.

Miss Moneypenny's house
The blue plaque on the house on the right commemorates the fact that from 1994 to 2001 it was the home of Lois Maxwell, who played Miss Moneypenny in many of the earlier James Bond films. The Royal Oak (which perhaps takes its name because it stands on Oakfield Road) has recently been saved from closure and reopened about six weeks before this photograph was taken.
