Sign for the White Hart, Castle Cary
This sign is a combination of heraldry and history. The White Hart was on Richard II's coat of arms and he could be a belligerent and aggressive sort of chap. An innkeeper who displayed this sign was saying 'Don't burn my inn, I'm on your side'. Such was the level of toadying at this time, that the name White Hart became synonymous with inns, and people continued using it longer after Richard II was gone and it is still used today.

A local bakers, with a delightful name. There were plenty of customers so it seems they are popular.

Road sign on house wall, Castle Cary, Somerset
The sign is about 12 feet above the pavement. It's doubtful how helpful it is to the motorist, but it looks good.
