Vers Brick Lane à Spitalfields, il y a des briques (ben oui), mais aussi quelques vieilles enseignes qui conservent de petits fragments de l’histoire des lieux. Le quartier a accueilli des Huguenots, des Irlandais et des Juifs d’Europe centrale avant de devenir, à partir du milieu du XXe siècle, un haut lieu de l’immigration bangladaise. Il semble difficile de dater précisément cette enseigne de magasin de saris sur Princelet Street, qui pourrait remonter au début des années 70 (le commerce a déménagé aujourd’hui). La maison date elle de la première moitié du XVIIIe siècle et abritait à l’origine l’atelier d’un tisserand huguenot (le petit écusson jaune au-dessus de la porte indique “En Dieu est tout”, en français dans le texte). Juillet 2023.

A ghost sign on the former Employment Exchange on Wardrop Street in the Govan Area of Glasgow. Just visible under the white paint, you can make out the words Ministry of Labour Employment Exchange sculpted into the facade. If this was highlighted in black, it would make it stand out a lot more and add to the heritage of the local area.

A friend of mine spotted this great #ghostsign for Daren Bread at Hurst Green in East Sussex.

Stamp vending machines were first introduced in the UK in 1907 (during the reign of Edward VII), so it must have been a later addition to this particular box, but I've no idea when. However, my best guess is sometime pre-WWII as the wording suggests a single stamp was issued for a single coin (probably a pre-decimal penny coin).
