Brass Plaque


From the website of a promo company…

“Most dental practices in the past have been period buildings and converted residential houses and unfortunately, can be very limiting with regards to external advertising. Every building is different though in many ways.

Here is a list below of different suggested signs which that may suit a practice:
• Projecting Signs
• Facia Signs
• Totem Poles
• Illuminated Signs
• Advertising Boards
• Perimeter Signs
• ‘A’ Boards
• Brass Plaques”

In East St Helen Street it really has to be a Brass Plaque. (Good to see things may be starting to move again now at the Kings Head and Bell reflected opposite – they are seeking planning permissions to replace the toilet block)

1984 and the Mayflower


In this hut at the bottom of St Ethelwold’s, it has been said by some that, George Orwell wrote part of the novel 1984. It is also said that the ship’s mast that props up much of Pulpit House, the newly converted Ask restaurant, came from the pilgrim father ship – the Mayflower.
