Sealed off gateway More evidence of the fear of travellers. It appears that the 1990s are alive and well here with many gateways blocked, with good reason if it is still like the 1990s.

Site of Somerton station Amazing - a railway runs through a town centre and there is no station.  Can only be a matter of time before one is opened given the expansion of the town in recent years, and that is before you take into account booming Street, 8km to the north.
