Not so much a village as a suburb of London these days, the sign depicts various local images: cows grazing on the Green (which was originally part of the great Epping Forest), Sir Winston Churchill – who for many years was the local MP here, plus the stalwarts of many other village signs – a game of cricket and the local church.

Clement Atlee, Labour prime Minister in the late 1940’s had a home here, and was therefore represented by his Commons opponent!
