Tin plate signs at Haconby, near Bourne, Lincolnshire
Close by one of the historic cottages at No 21 Chapel Street is an old wooden chicken hut adorned with advertising signs collected by the owners who salvaged some from the village shop when it closed down. These old metal enamelled signs have a particular appeal to anyone who remembers the England of the past because they were a familiar sight outside shops and garages between the wars and they remain an evocation of a less hectic world and those times when life proceeded at a far slower pace.
