From Richard De Morgan
The misleading signposts to Framlingham (Feedback, 8 November) can be explained as a hangover from the second world war. During the war, signposts in Norfolk and Suffolk were deliberately scrambled so as to create chaos and confusion – not to mention paranoia – in case of a German invasion.
I remember that around 1955, when these signposts were still widely in use, things were often very confusing in Norfolk.
