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.
Good reasons to look at projecting and hanging signs in Newquay
- Inside a conservation area, a painted timber-style sign in muted colours is usually the easier design to agree for a Newquay frontage.
- Visitors browsing Newquay on foot look along a street rather than at each shopfront in turn, which is exactly the view a projecting sign serves.
- When Newquay pavements are busy, fascias disappear behind people and parked vans, but a hanging sign above head height stays in view.

Do you need permission for a sign in Newquay?
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.
