The Sign
The sign was erected in February 2021. The main theme is the large tree in the centre, which maybe an Oak but more likely an Ash, relating to the village name; smaller trees are repeated either side of the name. A farmer is also seen ploughing with two heavy horses on the right and the church of All Saints on the left.

The Name and Population
The population was 314 at the 2011 census. It was called Stoca in the mid 11th century and Stoches in the Domesday Book, Stokeaysche in 1524. The name means a "secondary settlement", from Old English with the suffix added later from Middle English.

Other Points of Interest
The White Horse Inn was built during the reign of Charles I of England.

The village is split in two by the A140.

There is evidence of Roman settlement in Stoke Ash, where coins and pottery have been found and tiles in the doorway of the church.
