Sign for the Blue Boar
The blue boar is a heraldic reference to the Earl of Oxford. The white boar similarly refers to Richard III. It is said that after the defeat of Richard and the Yorkists at the Battle of Bosworth (1485), many White Boar signs were hastily painted blue, since the Earl of Oxford was a leading supporter of the Lancastrain cause.

The Village Pump
This old pump is a bit of a traffic hazard sited in the middle of a road junction. As you can see, the top is bent due to a collision. When I took this shot the top was dislodged and I could lower a tape into the well underneath, which is about 10 metres deep. I think it has been repaired now. Until the next time. The Aldbourne flows by the wall in front of the house.
