Debach, pronounced deb-itch, is a small village which during WW2 had an American airbase with the 493rd Bomb Group (Heavy) within its bounds. A B17 Flying Fortress is prominently featured on the sign along with a boat being built, which would suggest that at sometime the parish was in the past connected to the sea by the River Deben. lose-up > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4618083
