The sign depicts an Avro Lancaster of the type based at RAF Chedburgh during World War II. Below and on the ground, are a pair of heavy horses ploughing the fertile clay soil and a wheatsheaf standing in a field. It is the result of their yearlong labours and symbolic of the agricultural heritage of the parish. https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6767890 The sign replaced an earlier version https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4291589 with the same theme.
