Tellisford Weir on the River Frome

Highlight (Segment) • River

The path along this section of the river Frome between Tellisford Mill and Langham Farm where you join a track to Rode is a lovely run. The grassy field is a nice surface, but it does get a bit wet in the winter. The weir is a popular swimming spot but gets very busy in the summer and you aren't allowed to swim here as the weir gets damaged and affects the working of the mill.

Tellisford Mill

Highlight • Monument

A mill has existed on this site since Saxon times, when the original stone weir was built. Initially used for grinding grain into flour, it later produced woolen cloth and shredded fabric for stuffing.

Abandoned in 1912, the mill was revived in 2002 when Rachel Feilden and Anthony Battersby purchased it. By 2007, they had installed a 55kW micro-hydropower turbine, restoring its use of the River Frome to generate power.

A36 Road Crossing

Highlight • Rest Area

Avoid attempting to use this as a crossing for the A36. Although it's surrounded by idyllic lanes, it's too dangerous to cross here and run up the road for 10 metres to the lane on the left.
