Trimingham village sign, at the junction of Church Street and Loop Road.
The village has for years been in a constant battle with the sea, as it erodes away the coastline. The image of the sign is a representation of that struggle - farming right up to the edge of the cliffs, and a church always in danger of being lost to the sea in the next big storm.
The cliff face at Trimingham has the youngest chalk in the United Kingdom and it is possible to collect shells, bivalves, crinoids and oysters from here. The cliffs at Trimingham are suffering badly from coastal erosion.
