The junction of Fore Street and School Lane has a small unbuilt space, with a bench for passers by. In the past this would have been houses and shops but they have been cleared. Interestingly, there are three plaques on the seat: one marks the seventieth anniversary of the Women's Institute in 1997, one marks the 1st North Petherton Scouts work in creating the garden in the Scouts' movement's centenary in 2007, and the last commemorates Queen Elizabeth's Silver Jubilee.
