It's now a lovely, friendly and thriving Market Town in the heart of Somerset, with a wide 17th Century Market Square with a Buttercross as a focal point in the centre. The Market Square itself is surrounded by the old town hall, elegant houses and inns which create an attractive townscape drawing visitors from all over the world. Somerton's Market Place has a Grade II Listed Market Cross in the centre, described by Niklaus Pevsner, as "one of the most happily grouped urban pictures in Somerset".

**P.S. ** A few extra comments Mortgages – we can help. Bridging loans – We can help.
