The village sign at Ketteringham It has recently been repainted and the top section > <a title="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/45437" href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/45437">Link</a> is currently missing, presumably taken away also for repainting. The sign was carved by Eric Pleasants, a man with an interesting past. He was captured by the Germans in the Channel Islands and became a member of the British wing of Hitler's SS: the British Free Corps of the Waffen SS. After the war he ended up behind the Iron Curtain where he found employment as a strongman in a travelling circus, but was later arrested by the KGB on charges of espionage and sentenced to 25 years of slave labour in Siberia. Pleasants survived to write his autobiography (titled "Hitler's Bastard") and died in 1998 at the age of 87.
