We’ve come across some interesting road signs and public notices over the years, in a variety of places: remote, picturesque, ancient, weather-worn – or just really surprising! Here’s a selection of my favourites.
This must be one of the original metal finger posts; seen in East Lothian
Old cattle drovers' route on the West Highland Way
Sheet ice slips off a road sign near Machynlleth, Mid Wales
Frost at Ty'n y Coed, a National Trust site in North Wales
Rolling Stones? No, sorry - just standing ones
Old slate milestone near Penmachno, N Wales
Silent worship tonight, at Betws y Coed in North Wales
Arm yourself... the hens at Skipness don't take prisoners
Mile stone near Port Ellen, Islay; see the roe deer behind?
I especially like the choir one, and I love those black and white ones in East Lothian. A fine collection.
Thank you! I was surprised at how many we had photographed. I can remember seeing signposts like the East Lothian one on every crossroad.
These are great Jo !!! I love seeing signs from around the world. Some are hysterical as in the choir sign and the poultry sign. Must be careful of those bionic chickens!
Glad you enjoyed them! We didn’t encounter the fearless poultry, but we did have this feeling that we were being watched…
