The village of Saltford has been put back on the tourist map – literally.

Two councillors in the village, which has a population of more than 4,000, say they were amazed to find it was not on a 500,000-print run leaflet available at tourist information centres in the Bath and Somerset area.

Now parish councillors Duncan Hounsell and Chris Warren have persuaded Take One Media, which produces the leaflet Somerset – Things to See & Do to put the village on the map which is featured in its 2013 edition.

Mr Hounsell said: "Putting Saltford on this map is important for all the visitor-related businesses in Saltford."

Mr Warren added: "We are delighted with the rapid response."

The village boasts a Norman church, a 12th-century manor house said to be the oldest continuously occupied dwelling in England, and an 18th- century brass mill.
