A visit to Guildford yesterday to meet friends for lunch had me searching out a couple of buildings with Ghost Signs. I don’t often come across them now, but did a bit o& research
First up, on my way from the station into town…some very indistinct lettering:




….and after lunch, I went for a trip down to Quarry Street, and found the best one:

You’re right Sue. Ghost signs are an Endangered Species. Well researched and photographed!
I was pleased to see the one in Quarry lane, exhorting people to turn left!
Can’t disagree with that …
Oh……..ghost signs could be a god Ragtag Prompt for the future. These are fabulous Sue 😉
Thank you, Brian!
Great idea…. I have for many years passed a sign (in the car) high on the side of an old shop. I have been meaning to stop and get a shot…… it is fading rapidly. Its for Morning Glory – can you guess what it advertised ?
Not a flippin’ clue…breakfast cereal? Do stop and get that shot before it fades into oblivion!
Sunlight brand new Instant Coffee …. I guess when instant was first invented the 😀
Ugh! I haven’t done instant for years…
A good selection of ‘ghosties’, Sue.
Best wishes, Pete.
I was pleased with them!
I like your ghosts signs. 😀 😀
Thanks, Cee!
I wonder how many accidents that last one caused as people slowed down to read the whole thing! Great ghost signs.
Yep, good point!
