  12. @soundclamp @Giselle @fenhuw I only do one or two public walks a year now when I'm visiting from my home in Spain, but they are available online here: ghostsigns.co.uk/tours.

    I don't really know about cinema, but London has many active local historical societies, often with associated events programmes.

    Where are used to live, but not part of the Hackney Society, are the brilliant Stoke Newington History Talks: stokenewingtonhistory.com/stok

  14. @overholt That's brilliant.

    Something similar happens to sign painters that don't prepare, eg this one in London where they realised that Stoke Newington wouldn't fit in all uppercase letters and adjusted themselves accordingly.

    The sign features in the book by @ghostsigns and @RoyReed, see ghostsigns.co.uk/book.

  19. The Stokey tree is now lit! So pleased to be able to do this again this year with logistical support from Hackney Council’s streets team.

  20. More stars today, as our installation Twinkle went back up outside the arts centre next to our studio for the 4th year running.

  21. So today I was mostly decorating a large (growing) fir tree in Stokey for the winter celebrations, with my Output Arts hat on. The big star at the top is one of our LED stars, the rest of the decorations are a long star festoon decorated by members of the local community.

  22. Does anyone know what this number/code signifies on Knebworth Rd, London N16: 9684 N.N.S.?

    There is another with the same N.N.S. suffix in Notting Hill, which happens to be just below a ghost sign. This could indicate they are site markers for an outdoor advertising company, but that is currently just speculation. .

  28. I'm heading to London tomorrow for a string of #ghostsigns walking tours.

    Here are three of the signs that I'll be showing on my Stoke Newington walk.

    You can go into the ALT text on these images to learn more about the individual signs, and to see transcriptions of those in #palimpsest with multiple layers of text.

    These descriptive texts are taken from my digital walks: ghostsigns.co.uk/tours
