MILVERTON Parish Council marked the retirement of two long-serving members before Monday's meeting.
Roy Whittle and Mike Harvey had notched up nearly 50 years service between them before standing down in May.
Council chairman Jenny Hoyle said: "Milverton has been very fortunate to have had such dedicated and knowledgeable councillors as Roy and Mike and we wanted to honour their contribution and thank them for all their hard work and effort for this community over the years.
"The efforts of parish councillors aren't always recognised and we wanted to make sure that both Roy and Mike received a small thank you' for their long service."
Mr Whittle and Mr Harvey were presented with gift vouchers by current councillors.
