G H Porter, Newark Market Place
G H Porter, Newark Market Place
This long established (1890) business has recently closed. The signboards were the subject of a long lasting controversy with conservation officers arguing that they detracted from the appearance of the building. Locals had different views and eventually they were allowed to stay. I wonder what will happen to them now?
The building itself dates from about 1730 LinkExternal link
