Shepton Mallet

In May 2019, Mary Cole and Tracy Barlow were shocked when Freda Burgess informed them that Norris Cole was staying at a silent retreat in Shepton Mallet. Mary was suspicious of Freda, especially as Norris had apparently just filled Freda in on Mary’s wishes for a divorce from Norris. Freda pointed out however that as she was deaf, Norris was able to communictae with her through sign language. Norris left shortly afterwards and returned to Weatherfield to sort out the divorce as he wished to marry Freda.
