Beckington is a village and civil parish in the Mendip district of Somerset, England, across the River Frome from Lullington about three miles north of Frome…..Beckington is mentioned in the Domesday Book.
During the medieval period it became a centre for the wool trade.[2] By the 15th century, fulling mills had been built along the banks of the River Frome which supported spinning and weaving cottage industries. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beckington
