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 Newport
- If your Newport street is narrow and fascias are hard to read at an angle, a hanging sign catches shoppers walking towards your door.
- Upstairs businesses in Newport, such as salons, studios and accountants, can use a projecting sign at street level to mark a side door.
- Inside a conservation area, a painted timber-style sign in muted colours is usually the easier design to agree for a Newport frontage.

Do you need permission for a sign in Newport?
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.
