ECOS Stones, Frome

Completed in 1992, the amphitheatre next to Frome Community College and the Merlin Theatre deserves better recognition. Few people know about the twelve huge monoliths surrounding the site - why are they there - where did they come from - what do they mean? The answers to all these questions can be found on the 'ECOS Stones, Frome' link from the Bath Geological Society website. It is a great pity that this wonderful resource has been so under-used in the last 19 years. There is no information board to explain the project and no leaflets are available. A tremendous amount of time and effort went into this venture and now the stones are looking neglected and weathered. It would be relatively easy to clean them. Please contrast their state today with the photos on the website. Is there anything we can do?
Your comments and suggestions would be appreciated.
