Frome began as a Saxon village. The name Frome is believed to come from a Celtic river name fram, meaning, brisk or fair. The history of Frome begins in the 7th century AD. About 685 the Abbot of Malmesbury, St Aldhelm, founded a monastery there. Soon a settlement grew up by the monastery.
The monastery seems to have disappeared from Frome by the end of the 11th century. However in the 13th century a chapel was built dedicated to St Catherine. It gave its name to Catherine Hill.
