Newstead, farm sign Cuminestown
Newstead Sign detail

An elegant sheet metal cut out sign. The image while at first appearing to be simply an icon of the farm's livestock has an element of dark comic narrative, the tiny chick is threatened by an omnivorous and greedy sow, it is unaware of its possible impending doom while the mother hen leads it to shelter beneath the indifferent cow maybe escaping one gruesome end to suffer another.
