Wendling sign depicts an abbey founded in about 1256 and belonging to the Premonstratensian Order of Canons or white canons. The abbey lasted until 1536. There are no visible remains. The clouds in the sky are just as they appear on the old seal. The trees represent Honeypot Wood and because a few buildings from RAF Wendling remain within its boundary the airfield is also not forgotten. The Wendling Beck, which is pictured in blue behind the trees, meanders its way through the parish. https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6796710
