The sign depicts Bodham at its inception with Boda, after whom Bodham takes its name seemingly collecting his taxes from the peasants, in the form of a chicken (already at his feet) a pig, a goose, a lamb, some eggs, cheese and butter and a sheaf of wheat. Below the name are poppies, a thistle, ears of wheat, a reap hook with a forked stick and a bible.
