We rather take inn signs for granted. They are part of our urban street scene and we can direct strangers by using their names. They are a welcome flash of colour amongst the rural landscapes at the end of a country walk. However, inn signs were, and still are, much more than external advertising for food, drink and often accommodation. The signs, and their wrought iron brackets, reveal patronage, land ownership, social status and much more, opening a window to the past. Inn signs, pub signs, call them what you will, are a colourful addition to our urban and rural surroundings and are still full of meaning in the 21st century. This talk, using examples from Sussex, Surrey and Kent, will open your eyes to the art of the inn sign.
