Bridge Street


Bridge Street: the cast iron sign bearing the weathered patina of many years, with its superscript 'T' (similarly used in Northgate Street).

and below the fire insurance company medallions (LVM, 18ft and LVS, 11ft):

Perhaps inevitably, this lettering example was noticed to have disappeared (with a stretch of ancient red brick wall which surrounds the burnt-out St Peter's warehouse which supported it) by late 2005. Presumably this is all part of the radical Waterfront Regeneration scheme which is responsible for the removal of massive unsightly old concrete structures and their replacement with massive unsightly new concrete structures (cynics!).
