Bruton, Somerset; the place to be

Exciting new development in Bruton from The Economist (Prospero)

"THE sorts of cities into which Hauser and Wirth, one of the world’s most successful commercial art galleries, might be expected to expand are Hong Kong, Beijing, São Paulo and others in the emerging markets. But instead it is the world of farmers' markets that has seduced Iwan and Manuela Wirth, the company's joint presidents, and they have chosen to locate their latest outpost in Bruton, a small town in the Somerset countryside 120 miles south-west of London...This is no cultural backwater. Close to Glastonbury, Stourhead and Stonehenge, the area has its fair share of artistic sorts."

(It's where I went to school, of course. It wasn't quite so trendy or fashionable back then).
