At the very top is the emblem of the Royal Air Force in remembrance of RAF West Raynham. It is no surprise Raynham Hall features boldly on the sign, it has been the home of the Townshend family for 400 years. Sheep also feature large in the grounds of the hall keeping the grass trim. Also depicted are a team of black horses drawing a furrow. The crops shown are turnip, wheat, barley and oats, with peas and clover thrown in for good measure.
