Sign Ban

More signage news from around the world - this time from Ireland from Hants and Dorset Signs as Courtown publican and Gorey Town Councillor Jimmy Fleming is all fired up over the antique enamel smoking signs in his pub following a visit from the EHO who instructed that they be taken down.

An Environmental Health Officer with the HSE had visited the pub before Christmas and told him he’d have to take down two decorative mirrors bearing the name 'Players' and an old enamel sign for Woodbines.

But Jimmy is prepared to go to court rather than take them down.

“The signs are up here for the last 30 years,” explained Jimmy, who runs Jimmy'z Pub in the Riverchapel area of Gorey town.

The signs are part of the traditional furniture of the pub and Jimmy believes that the EHO is going “way over the top” with this demand.

The brands referred to in the signage are for Wills Gold Flake and Players Navy Cut and have been part of the pub since the building was built.
