 The veteran Landlady of the Lamb and Fountain Freda Searle affectionately known to Frome drinkers as 'Mother' has passed away. 
It is with great sadness I have to tell you that mother passed away peacefully during the night.  As per her instructions it is business as usual at the L&F.  Sue
Not sure how old she was  - about 98.  She was landlady from 1969. The Lamb and Fountain is reckoned to be the oldest pub in Frome (1753) and is an unchanged cider house. Well worth a visit if you ever find yourself in Frome. Raise a glass to her memory. Article on the pub from 2020 here
