The point where London Road in the foreground meets Wladron Road on the left and High Street to the right. Up to 1992 the ninety degree bend was part of the A22 and was often congested as large lorries had problems negotiating the corner. All this was alleviated by the construction of Image which has turned the road into a backwater and made the centre of the village a far more pleasant place. To the left is the Kings Head one of two village pubs which is also a microbrewery, whilst the village retains a few shops, in this case a second hand bookshop, a cafe and out of shop a hairdressers all located opposite the post office and general stores.
