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 Stowmarket
- Corner units in Stowmarket gain twice, because a projecting sign on the corner catches people coming from both streets.
- A small Stowmarket shop squeezed between larger neighbours can still be spotted from the end of the street with a well-placed hanging sign.
- Visitors browsing Stowmarket 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 Stowmarket?
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.
