Thanks for that, Phil – reassuring that you found it, no doubt! I’m personally preferring the modern pronunciation…

Thanks for this Beth,

I now finally have proof that the Milky Bar advert from the 70’s said Nestles (pronounced to rhyme with Wrestles) and not Nestlé. They even had Nestlé’s on the wrapper.

 

For definitive proof if you needed it

Right. Back to work…

Hi everyone,

 

Grahame’s post from a couple of weeks ago (below) got me interested in finding out what ghost signs survive in West Berkshire. We only have a couple of HER records that mention them and I know there are more, so I’m trying to ‘crowd source’ photos via a plea on social media. The Berkshire Industrial Archaeology Group recommended this catalogue by the History of Advertising Trust, which may be of use to others: www.hatads.org.uk/catalogue/ghostsigns.aspx.

 

Best wishes,

 

Beth

Hi all,

 

I wonder if I can pick the collective brain? We've recently had an enquiry about a register or list of ghost signs held by the city council on the side of buildings, etc, and whether they are recorded on the HER or protected somehow. We've considered article 4 directions, but we're not sure what the status of these signs should be, especially as many are on 'unremarkable' buildings. Does anyone have a view about recording these, etc, as we would like to hear what others think? I should add that there is a web site that records many ghost signs in Leicester, but this is maintained by a member of the public.

 

All the best,

 

Grahame

COVID 19  Planning Update: In line with the City Council Business Continuity Plan and with Government advice issued relating to Coronavirus, the Planning service has had to close its offices.

We are currently seeking to establish remote working capacity,  but this is in the context of wider critical service pressures across the council. We are finding that our ability to handle and process large files remotely is very constrained.

As a result there will be delays in service such as the validation and processing of new applications. In terms of responding to queries relating to the current workload, we will not be able to offer face to face meetings, but will seek to use online methods to maintain dialogue where possible.

The arrangements for Planning and Development Control Committee are currently under review.

Under the circumstances, we would appreciate a constructive approach from applicants and agents to agreeing reasonable extensions of time for planning applications and prior approvals wherever possible and necessary.

Please bear with us as we all try to establish working arrangements to minimise the obvious impacts of this situation, thank you.
