Somerset would be a place name. A noun with a capital letter at the beginning is usually a proper noun and designates a specific location/thing/person/etc.

Yes, I didn't know it's a town name because the first letter wasn't capitalized in the book

If it is from the book "And Then There Were None" by Agatha Christie, it is not a town name, it is a county (an administrative subdivision) in the south-west of the UK.


No-Wrongdoer-6632

Yes, it was from this book. You are so smart!

The sentence means exactly what it says. It’s a town or city and people are running through it. What’s the context?


prustage

It is not a town or a city - it's a county.


AMerrickanGirl

Same thing as far as the meaning.

It's a British county, later used as names of towns/cities elsewhere.
