The sign is in the form of a coarse mosaic. We must assume they were welcome and settled in the area because on this side one of them is hoeing the soil while his wife drops seeds into the drill. The other side of the sign shows a Viking long-ship with all on board waving axes and swords in the air and a man on the river bank calling to them “I’m over here!”. https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4374145 The official version can be read here https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6780705
