'Lost' Signs

The new year continued where the old one left off! ended on a high,
Another 23 out of 30 were successfully identified!
Our cumulative success rate is now over 60% - sixty per cent!

Many thanks to members who have supplied 'lost' signs and also to members who have 'found' them!

More 'lost' signs are urgently needed!
However, common signs such as the Bulls Head, Railway, Swan etc are unlikely to be included unless there is some unusual feature (such as the brewer's logo/ name or visible part of the building, which may aid identification).

This page is for members to submit pictures of inn signs where the location needs to be identified.

Consequently, if anyone can provide the location of any picture, please send info by email to the webmaster at the address below.

Please provide area or county details and year of photo, if known, to help narrow the search and submit your photos in jpeg format to the webmaster at the address below.
