        The requests were taken up by Table Placemat  South Somerset District Council and Yeovil Town Council, who pooled their resources and commissioned a bespoke tea towel showing illustrations of local landmarks.

        The towel includes illustrations of a helicopter, gloves, an apple tree, Yeovil Town House, Sidney Gardens and the Jack the Treacle Eater folly in Barwick.
