Established in 1930, our shop is run by the third generation of the family. A visit to our shop is a truly unique experience, and a great destination for a day out. We are located in the picturesque county town of Dorchester in Dorset.

Walking into Frank Herring and Sons is a creative and colourful adventure; our customers are frequently amazed at our extensive range of products filling shelves from floor to ceiling on two floors, which provides inspiration for all sorts of projects, for the professional or hobbyist of any age.

Our friendly and knowledgeable members of staff are always on hand to advise about our products, and to help you find what you need. If we do not have what you need, an ordering service is available. Therefore even if you are unable to visit us and cannot see what you need on this website, please give us a call.

Disclaimer:
Although we try to advise customers on the use of products, it is very much the customer’s responsibility to ensure that products are suitable for the required application. We strongly advise a test is carried out before use.
