White Barn - black door
Detail. The door looks as if it has been fire-damaged, but it has been tarred as a way of protecting the wood. See also: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3023609

Old AA sign
This style of AA village sign was made by Franco Signs NW1 from 1923 through to the 1930s. Made of metal, the inevitable rusting has taken place especially where stones have been thrown at them. These signs were taken down, together with other road signs and milestones, in 1940. Some villages saved their signs and have re-erected them. Others are in museums and private collections.
