Admiral Horatio Nelson of Trafalgar statue
The wooden carving was designed and produced by a local chainsaw artist, and now sits on the village playing field.
The Norwegian maple tree from which it is carved suffered in 2021, from summer branch drop which rendered it unsafe.
Rather than go to the expense of having the tree and stump removed the project was suggested by villager Fiona Bevington, and executed by chainsaw artist Henry Hepworth-Smith.

Burnham Thorpe village sign
Not surprisingly the sign features “Norfolk’s favourite son” Admiral Lord Nelson. There’s more in the church for anyone interested.
