About

Yeovil sits in south Somerset along the River Yeo, the stream that gives the town its name. The town centre clusters around a mix of retail streets, civic buildings and the Octagon Theatre, with regular markets and community events. Road links include the A37 through the town and quick access to the A303 corridor to the north, while two railway stations serve the wider urban area. Public parks and riverside paths follow the Yeo through older suburbs, and the town's street pattern reflects growth from medieval lanes to 19th-century expansion.

Industry has shaped Yeovil's character: glove-making workshops were a major employer in the 19th and early 20th centuries, and aircraft and helicopter manufacturing remain important today, with the main aerospace works on the town’s eastern edge. Sport and local identity centre on Yeovil Town Football Club at Huish Park. Housing ranges from terraces near the centre to more recent estates on the outskirts, and community facilities include a municipal library, leisure centre and a network of walking routes that connect neighbourhoods to the river.
