Fillongley’s heritage interpretation feature is ‘The Family’. Carved by Graeme Mitcheson from sandstone, it shows the family group with each member holding a representation of local heritage.

The father - a lamb, for its farming history. The mother - a lantern, recalling the light that used to always burn in the church to remember villagers who had passed away. The daughter - a banner of silk, to remember the towns ancient silk weaving industry and showing part of the historic De Hastings family coat of arms. The son - a loaf of bread, a tribute to the village’s ancient mill and a reminder that the village was at one time self-sufficient.
