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.
Reasons to choose projecting and hanging signs in Atherton
- When Atherton pavements are busy, fascias disappear behind people and parked vans, but a hanging sign above head height stays in view.
- Visitors browsing Atherton on foot look along a street rather than at each shopfront in turn, which is exactly the view a projecting sign serves.
- Upstairs businesses in Atherton, such as salons, studios and accountants, can use a projecting sign at street level to mark a side door.

Do you need permission for a sign in Atherton?
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.
