These cast iron signposts were made by the Alnwick Foundry, they are believed to date back to the 1920`s. The foundry no longer exists - it was demolished to make way for a supermarket (Morrisons). A small number of signs have survived to this day, all in various states of disrepair. An example is given in the first image. I have photographed a dozen or so, all on minor, unclassified roads, off the beaten track. Imagine then, my surprise, indeed my joy, on seeing just one of these long neglected signposts restored to its former glory. A job extremely well done, I would say!

I appreciate this is outside of the geographical triangle relevant to these forums, I hope I will be forgiven on this occasion.
