It is a market town (they usually are) of historic buildings, beautiful parklands, canals and quite a few pubs!

The origin of Frodsham
Frodsham is derived from the old words Frod (an old spelling of Ford) and ham which means a village or homestead; hence Frod's village or the Village on the Ford (Ford-ham). Though a more obscure etymology exists which suggests the name means "promontory into marsh". This probably makes sense considering that Frodsham had a promontory castle very close to marshland, though it was more of a fortified Manor or gaol than an actual castle.

Frodsham's nearby attractions include Castle Park, Castle Arts Centre and Lady Heyes Craft and Antique Restoration Centre A market is held each Thursday along Frodsham Main street.
