A ring road sign on the A3015 in Exeter. Exeter doesn't really have a proper ring road - the A3015 is more of a bypass.

Hadn't seen one of these before...
Originally uploaded to Coppermine on Jun 23, 2008 by IrlRonSignage error at the Blackhall Junction in Edinburgh. Queueing in traffic, I thought there was something odd about this sign, and eventually noticed the colour patches are incorrect. The A roads should be signed using yellow on green, but instead are white on green.
This is a typical example of anti-dog fouling signage as erected by Limerick City Council, Ireland. Although there is a lot of text on the sign, it certainly does make one think!
Information sign in Swansea. The Welsh translation is incorrect, and reads: 'I am not in the office at the moment. Please send any work to be translated', and should be 'Dim mynediad ar gyfer cerbydau nwyddau trwm.
Safle preswyl yn unig'.
Maybe the way in on the right and the way out on the left (right on the side of the driver coming out) would be better.
Flag sign on the N56 Dunfanaghy. An example of County Donegal's new, clear signage of important L-road junctions.
Some typical signage in Cork, Ireland. Ireland has an unusual mix of US/Australian style diamond shaped signs and UK signage.
Layby and viewpoint on the N86 On the main road from Tralee to Dingle, with a fine view over Tralee Bay with Kerry Head in the distance.
Quite strange how it has an LED light attached to the older Holophane Parkpack lantern. Royal Mail, Wolverhampton.
Quinton, Birmingham. It was unusual to see these columns with casual Unistreet (LED) replacements. The old blue columns on the left are Sandwell council, and the modern black columns on the right are Birmingham council.
A449, Stafford Rd, Wolverhampton. Between the road-work signs, the unusual street light with the bracket a different colour to rest of the column.
Taken from McDonalds car-park, roundabout in Redditch. You can see the signage fairly clearly and the road numbers of around this area. Street lighting seen here are 10 metre columns with TRT Aspect (LED) lanterns. The prievious lanterns were probably Urbis ZX3s or SGS203s, HPS/SON lighting.
Road closed for Curzon Street. This is part of the area that is planned to be redeveloped for HS2. The street lights seen here appear to be 10 to 12 metre columns with lanterns such as Urbis Albanys and Philips Lumas. They may renew the street lighting down this road if they start rebuilding the train station. Just have to wait and see what happens.
Junction 2 of the M54. Urbis Ampera lanterns along the slip-roads. The previous and original lanterns were Philips MA60s. The lights changed back in 2017.
1905 sign from the Zigzag Bridge, Aldridge Road (A453), Perry Barr, Birmingham. The sign is in the possession of Birmingham City Council roads depot.
York Street in Leicester, just off Granby Street. No-entry sign as its a one way system. Photo from Summer of 2018.
Street name sign for Victoria Avenue/Victoria Quay, with the Welsh Bridge (A458) in the background. Photo from Summer 2018.
Along the A449 in Wolverhampton, at the island just outside McDonalds. Signage for the city centre and Molineux Stadium, along with a temporary diversion sign as well.
10m columns with LED lanterns in Brierley Hill. The twin brackets in the foreground have Philips Digistreets, and in the background are Urbis Axia 2s. Theres also some signage for business parks, trading estates, the M5 motorway, and Dudley town centre.
Along the A460 in South Staffs. 12m street lights with Philips MA60 (LPS/SOX) lanterns. Signage for speed camera and 30 miles an hour.

Along Broad Street in Birmingham, where they're building a new tram/metro line. The road is closed off, so there is temporary signage such as 'road closed' and 'diversion'.
Winterborne Houghton- finger post An old Dorset signpost complete with location and grid reference on the circular part of the finial, now rather obscured by brambles.
For a close-up of the finial under less cluttered foliage, see 1752509.
Winterborne Stickland- downhill from Normandy Lodge Looking down the road which has come from Bryanston and Blandford, as it heads down into the village of Winterborne Stickland.
The finger-post has in recent years been fitted with a traditional style Dorset roundel giving location and grid reference. See 5710890 for a close-up.
