YOU may remember a weather forecaster on TV in the 90s who used to walk around a map of the British Isles which was floating on water?
Well, Somerset has its own answer to the This Morning map from years gone by - in the form of a Tarmac patch in a Taunton street.
Okay, it may not be as big, but you can walk on it!
The patch was spotted by a walker in the road, off Castle Street, and your County Gazette has been to see it.
"I was stopped in my tracks when it caught my eye," said the walker.
"It looks exactly like the British Isles."
We have highlighted the outline of the patch for you to compare.
Was this just a coincidence, or a road worker with a sense of humour?
