Frogmore, Devon

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Frogmore village hall

Frogmore is a village in the civil parish of Frogmore and Sherford[1] in the South Hams district of the county of Devon, England.[2][3]

The origin of the place-name is from the Old English words frogga and mere meaning pool frequented by frogs.[4]

The village is located at the head of Frogmore Creek, an arm of the Kingsbridge Estuary. It was once a small and thriving port, but is now more popular with tourists and horses.

A regatta is held every year in August; there is a village hall, one pub and a traditional bakery.
