In the background of the sign is the flour mill with a man loading sacks onto his cart. The mill was built in 1826 in what had been maltings. The church of St Andrew is on the extreme left. A wheatsheaf reflects the farming tradition still carried on in the parish. The lady handing a coin to the children is the widow Morley, the first female appointed as overseer of the poor. https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4291007
