A FROME pub run by the same family for more than five decades is up for sale – with the stipulation it is “not to be used as a tourist attraction”.

The landmark, grade II-listed Lamb and Fountain free house, in Castle Street, is being marketed by Rogers & Co, with an asking price of £650,000.

“With so much more than you would ever see from obtaining liquid refreshment, there is over 5,500sq ft of pub, storage areas, living accommodation, undeveloped cellars and a stunning partially-developed barn with an 800sq ft footprint,” the listing said.

“There is plenty of garden at the rear, most of it laid to veg with a basic beer garden.

“Not for the faint of heart and not to be used as a tourist attraction. Our client is keen for us to verify any potentially interested party before a viewing can take place.”
