Old Style Street Sign - Percy Street by phil_howcroft

Old Style Street Sign - Percy Street

This is the street sign that sits high above the road on the Murphy & Son Building in Basford, Nottingham

I like the colours and the black and white "old school" style sign

Although simple, it does make for a nice shot

It will be Percy Street forever! Very clear and pleasing on the brick wall!

A real old fashioned sign with a good old fashioned name......something very solid & Northern about it!

@happypat it is a fab sign pat, very old style. It looks really heavy, perhaps wrought iron, certainly high up enough to deter potential metal thieves !

i like the textures and the RUST !!

I agree, Phil, the colours and textures do make a lovely shot. Makes you feel like it is 50 years ago.
