taken 14 years ago, near to Chatteris, Cambridgeshire, England

A neglected old sign
A neglected old sign
A forgotten old-style direction sign at the end of New Road approaching the High Street in Chatteris. The A141 now bypasses the town and few motorists today will even see the sign, tucked away as it is behind the fence and shed which have presumably encroached on the pavement since the sign was set up.
Pre-Worboys road signs

These are known as pre-Worboys signs because in 1965 new signs were introduced acting on the recommendations of the Worboys Committee which had been tasked with reviewing the UK's road signage. The new designs have mostly remained in current use with only minor changes.
