Holy Trinity Church

The Holy Trinity Church is situated in the historic Trinity area of Frome, at the top of Welsh Mill Hill. Built in 1838, this church is an early Victorian building and is about a ten-minute walk from the town centre.

Holy Trinity Church was designed by H E Goodrich with a simple interior but features Morris & Co windows designed by Pre-Raphaelite artist Edward Burne-Jones Burne-Jones.

Burne-Jones Windows

The nine windows span the entirety of Burne-Jones’ career in stained glass (1866-1896) and were manufactured in the famous William Morris workshops between 1880 and 1903.

These windows with the strongly rendered figures, beautifully designed foliate backgrounds and rich colours are outstanding in their quality, and together form what is perhaps the most impressive collection of Burne-Jones/Morris and Co stained glass in the south west.

A booklet outlining the history of the windows is available to purchase for £5. Guided tours are also conducted during the annual Frome Festival.
