Sloley village sign
The name of the village comes from the Sloe or blackthorn bushes which used to be in abundance in earlier times. The sign has four elements. The church of St. Bartholomew flanked on the left by a wheatsheaf in a stubble field reflecting the agricultural heritage of the parish and some of those sloe bushes on the other.
The figure enjoying a glass of sloe gin perhaps, represents Ralph de Beaufour who was Tenant-in-Chief of much of the area in 1086. The reference to Domesday gives the old name of the village, Slaleia. The other shield with the three knives is the symbol of St Bartholomew who was flayed or skinned alive. https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6674186

Here the bridleway ends
The public bridleway > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1046356 turns into an unsurfaced lane linking with Burley Road, the main thoroughfare. The public bridleway turns off Roman Road, leading past horse pastures which adjoin on both sides > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1046368. It emerges here, in Frankfort, a short distance further to the north.
