Very interesting sign. Great find and shot.

[Lynne Hart]

Great find, wonder why the 's' is the wrong way round?

[Penelope Ann]

Lovely find.... looks in good condition

[Sue Cooper]

Interesting shot. Well spotted. This isn't even Cornish is it?

@susiemc @pennystot @lhart @aglennc I have no idea how old this way marker is.
I found a couple more of these around the area we stayed.
All the other locations were spelt as the current spelling of the town/village is. There were no other examples of reversed letters, however in all other examples the town name was split over 2 lines. (Maybe this is early text speak!!!! Or a stone mason having a bad day!)

@sjc88
Often the letter S was written as a letter F without the cross bar! But not sure about the reversed one

Fascinating old monument. I don't think anything over here is that old. Interested reversed S.
