The village lies near to the A14 main road and is a small affair with paths linking to Spaldwick and Ellington.
On the sign is a scenic view of the village with its thatched cottages and stream. The little, white bridge crosses the stream and the church can be seen in the distance. Blue sky and lush vegetation give the view a summer feel. Cherries and a wagon wheel appear either side of the village name.
On the other side is a cock pheasant strutting through the grass. A backdrop of the stream, ploughed fields and grassland is shown. Sheaves of corn appear either side of the village name referring to the agricultural heritage of the village.
There is a wooden plaque which reads:
