The sign depicts several of the rural crafts and businesses that Cowlinge has had over the centuries before. There is the ubiquitous windmill with its window in the shape of a coffin to remind us of the village undertaker. There is a wheel to remind us of the wheelwright and a fox depicting a Silver Fox Farm that used to be in the village. Also the whole sign sits on top of an anvil to remind us of the blacksmith. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4450519
