Meeting House Hill village sign
Meeting House Hill village sign
The name of the village has been shortened to Meeting Hill and shows The Baptist Meeting House from which the village takes its name, a wherry which is a reminder of the halcyon days of the North Walsham and Dilham canal, and a spinning wheel which was once an important industry in many households of the village. The sign pointing the way to The Land of Milk and Honey would suggest it was elsewhere.

Village Signs of East Anglia

Village signs are typically placed along the principal road or in a prominent location such as a village green or close by the church. The design often depicts a particularly feature of the village or a scene from its history, heritage, or culture. They are typically made of wood or metal or a combination of both, the designs are often made by the local community.
Although they do appear in villages and towns all over the country they are more prominent in East Anglia than elsewhere in the country.
