Sometimes the green man would refer to Robin Hood (from his habit of wearing Lincoln Green). On other occasions, it would be a reference to the spirit of the forest where his face would be made up largely of greenery and might have strands growing from his mouth. This version of the image can often found in churches.
The sign used here has a definite off the shelf' quality about it. See also WMCDQP and WMB78B.
