A projecting sign is a sign, usually double-sided, fixed at right angles to a building on a wall bracket, so it can be read by people approaching along the street from either direction.
Practical reasons to consider projecting and hanging signs in Thatcham
- If your Thatcham street is narrow and fascias are hard to read at an angle, a hanging sign catches shoppers walking towards your door.
- With an older frontage, a Thatcham pub, café or bakery often suits a traditional painted sign on a scroll bracket.
- Corner units in Thatcham gain twice, because a projecting sign on the corner catches people coming from both streets.

Do you need permission for a sign in Thatcham?
Will you need permission? For a non-illuminated sign at your own business address in England, usually not, as long as it stays inside the deemed consent limits: letters no taller than 0.75 m (0.3 m in an area of special control) and nothing above the bottom of a first-floor window. Historic streets need more care. In a conservation area the details matter more, and fixing to a listed building usually needs listed building consent, with fixings into mortar joints rather than brick or stone faces generally preferred. We check with you before anything is ordered, and can prepare drawings and photos for an application, or submit it for you.
