One of Somerset's many alluring placenames is celebrated on this signpost, where Sock Lane leaves the A359, which can be seen continuing towards Yeovil. "Sock" is "probably an area of marsh or streams" http://webapp1.somerset.gov.uk/her/details.asp?prn=53044 and Mudford seems fairly self-explanatory.
