Project 2008

SOMERTON BUSINESS & TRADE DIRECTORY 2009 – 2010

First published in 1987 it has proved to be a very useful addition to the main directories. Somerton is small by many standards but shops carry an outstanding range of stock and quality, providing a personal service that still makes shopping in Somerton a pleasure, this also applies to the wide range of non retail services it has to offer.

This 11th edition was distributed free to all letter boxes in the TA10, TA11 and TA12 postal addresses, which covers Langport, Somerton, Martock and the surrounding areas, over 11,200 copies. If any extra copies are required they are available from the London Cigarette Card Company situated in West Street at the entrance to the Brunel Shopping Precinct car park in Somerton.

For 2009-10 edition Mobile and Fax numbers have been included and with the ever increasing use of the computer, E-Mail and Website addresses have also been included.

Members of the Association will receive a FREE line entry under there chosen category heading, ie Accountants, Bed and Breakfast, Builders, etc. with their address, phone number, E-Mail address and website address if required.


 

Project 2009

Somerton Tourist Leaflet

As their project for 1995 the Association produced a Somerton Tourist Leaflet with the support of South Somerset District Council, Somerton Parish Council and Mid Somerset Rural Development Area Community Chest. These proved to be very popular and reprints were printed in 1997 and 2000.

In 2003/2004 a new version was printed with over 95,000 copies. This was made possible due to support from Somerset Levels and Moors Partnership, Leader +, South Somerset District Council, Defra and Somerton Town Council.

In February 2007 a further revised version was printed 92,000 copies. This also made possible due to support from The Somerton Town Council and Somerton Tourism and Heritage Partnership.
In May 2009 a further revised version was printed 50,000 copies. This also made possible due to support from The Somerton Town Council,  Somerton Tourism and Heritage Partnership and South Somerset District Council Area Development Group North

The leaflets are available free from the Council Office in the Parish Rooms, the local Tourist Information Office in West Street or The London Cigarette Card Company Shop in West Street.
