Sussex Inn Signs & their History

Do you know your White Horse from your Red Lion, or your Kings Head from your Royal Oak?

Inn signs were, and still are, much more than external advertising for food, drink and possibly accommodation nowadays. The signs and their brackets reveal patronage, land ownership, social status, local personalities and events, opening a window on to the past.  Sussex inn signs are a colourful addition to our urban and rural surroundings, and they are still full of meaning in the 21st century.
