Flowing 20 miles (32 km) from Dodington Park in South Gloucestershire to Bristol's Floating Harbour, the River Frome meanders through beautiful countryside and the vibrant city of Bristol.

During the Industrial Revolution, the river was used to power various mills. Due to industry and as it flows through a busy city, parts of the river have suffered from pollution, However, you will still find diverse wildlife, as well as interesting history, along its waters.
