The sign in the foreground is to warn people about the geese that wander round the green every day. The buildings in the distance are The Clock House, currently a beauticians, formerly a café and a shop. In the centre a house called 'Durud', a Grade II listed 16th century timber-framed building, now faced with weather-boarding and to the left 'Sherrald', an 18th century house also listed Grade II. The meaning of the name 'Durud' I have not been able to find, but 'Sherrald' is a fairly widespread first and family name.
