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.
What projecting and hanging signs can do for businesses in Bo’ness
- Inside a conservation area, a painted timber-style sign in muted colours is usually the easier design to agree for a Bo’ness frontage.
- A small Bo’ness shop squeezed between larger neighbours can still be spotted from the end of the street with a well-placed hanging sign.
- Visitors browsing Bo’ness on foot look along a street rather than at each shopfront in turn, which is exactly the view a projecting sign serves.

Do you need permission for a sign in Bo’ness?
In Scotland, signs are controlled by the Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) (Scotland) Regulations 1984, as amended. Some signs on business premises are allowed without an application, but the details differ from England's, so we check with the council rather than assume. Where express consent is needed, the application goes to the council, usually through eDevelopment.scot. Listed buildings need extra care: listed building consent is usually required under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) (Scotland) Act 1997. We look at your premises before you commit and can prepare the drawings and photos, or submit the application for you.
