  5. @les_briques The Walker Brothers one is where it all started for me, so it has a lot to answer for! That's celebrating its centenary around now, and these are the two brothers themselves (Frank on the left, and Herbert on the right), now included among the contextual images on the digital version of the walking tour: ghostsigns.co.uk/tours.

    Photos courtesy of Jo and Steve Walker, who are very much related!

    I've added a comment to give a bit more context to the main sign so scroll to the end to see that.

  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

  15. @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.

  16. 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.

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

  18. 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.

  19. 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. .

    Answers on a postcard, or in a reply, and please boost to increase reach...

  20. I love this local pub and how consistent the clientele is. First photo from December last year, second photo from today.

  21. There used to be a charity that built massive buildings that provided tempory accomodation that was rentable by the day, one was in Stoke Newington (which was later turned into a hotel). Anyone know what it was called? I've tried searching for it and I'm coming up with nothing. #StokeNewington

  22. #introduction I’m a #facilitator and #coach, working with groups and individuals who have #sustainability related stuff to get on with.

  23. local pub, called The Shakespeare. the photo looks like #silentsunday, in reality it’s not so silent though with the sound of world cup match on tv.

  24. I don’t think any of this info will be new to anyone here, but: an #introduction.

    I’m from #Arkansas; I moved to the UK after university. I‘ve got two kids, a dog, a cat, and a husband. I live in #London, specifically #StokeNewington, and I work in #publishing (I have a job as an editor, and I also run a small press).

    I enjoy #reading, #cooking, #comedy, and doing the #NYTcrossword. I believe people should be free to be who they are, and we should all be kind enough to leave each other alone.
