Frost's finally closed
Frost's finally closed
Frost's newsagents finally closed a week after the predicted date. It makes this end of town feel rather forlorn.
Frost's newsagents in Bridport is closing down after years being an icon of the town, almost akin to Colmer's Hill. The current owners, Franklins, took it over in 1962 but has become another casualty of retirement and competition from internet trading and supermarket discounting. At one time the local paper was printed above the shop. Being sold to The Original Factory Shop group.
