Burstall village sign and church
The coat of arms belong to Henry Bolingbroke (Henry IV) and were used by Elizabeth I (lily flowers) and up until the Union.
On the left is the Burstall clock tower, and on the right is St Mary's church. Below the crest is Burstall Village Hall, an exceptional Tudor style building constructed just over 100 years ago, with an endowment from Lillian Cranfield in memory of her husband who founded Cranfield Mills of Ipswich.

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.
