Potter Heigham village sign
This sign is located at the entrance to the village hall. It is double sided. On one side we have a soldier playing a drum. A drummer boy, home on leave, fell in love with a village girl and the pair made plans to marry before he was called back to his duties. Nightly he skated from his home to the secret meeting place where he would spend evenings with his love, in a small hut on the edge of Hickling Broad, on arrival he would beat his drum to warn of his approach. On one fatal February night the ice had started to melt and he fell through the ice to his death.
The other side of the sign has a more cheerful picture of a windpump, Norfolk sherry, harvest safely gathered in judging by the hay and straw stacks, and a team of horses ploughing the field. https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6668105
