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.
Where projecting and hanging signs can pay off in South Ockendon
- With an older frontage, a South Ockendon pub, café or bakery often suits a traditional painted sign on a scroll bracket.
- When South Ockendon pavements are busy, fascias disappear behind people and parked vans, but a hanging sign above head height stays in view.
- Inside a conservation area, a painted timber-style sign in muted colours is usually the easier design to agree for a South Ockendon frontage.

Do you need permission for a sign in South Ockendon?
In England, a non-illuminated sign on your own business premises usually falls under deemed consent, which means no application is needed provided the sign stays within set limits. The lettering and symbols should be no more than 0.75 m tall (0.3 m in an area of special control), and the top of the sign should sit no higher than the bottom of any first-floor window. Conservation areas and listed buildings need more care: a sign on a listed building usually also needs listed building consent. We check the position for your premises before you commit, and we can prepare the drawings and photos for an application or submit it for you.
