A sign with many aspects to recognise. The two churches are most prominent at the top, separated by a large tree as in the churchyard at the new church, only a short distance from this sign. The old church, located midway between Melton and Ufford is still in use and for hire as a venue for any occasion. Wilford Bridge over the River Deben looms large in the picture, complete with a sailing barge. A wheatsheaf, ploughed field, ice cutting plough and blacksmith's anvil complete the picture of Melton past and present. https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6648814
