Dist:0.4km<br/>This is a picture of the village sign for the twin villages of Abberton and Langenhoe. These two villages are bisected by the B1025 Mersea Rd to the east of the road is Langenhoe and to the west is Abberton. The stone under the sign is a war memorial, which is unusual in that it was not erected until the year 2000. The photo was taken looking West with the B1025 running north south behind the photographer.
