Moved to Mastodon, See BelowThis is a recent addition to the online map that accompanies our book. It was revealed by the removal of a covering (and protecting) sign board at the corner of Station Road and Plevna Road, Hampton, Middlesex TW12. The photo is from Jenny Mairlot.<br>

The full map with over 1,000 London ghost signs can be found here, and is the diligent work of the book's co-author <a class="u-url" href="https://pixelfed.social/@RoyReed@mastodonapp.uk" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@RoyReed@mastodonapp.uk</a>: <a href="https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1KjHS8uGZeV08xYooNSgUUVZuiTSvXIRq&usp=sharing" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1KjHS8uGZeV08xYooNSgUUVZuiTSvXIRq&usp=sharing</a><br>

This addition to London's ghost signs landscape goes a small way to redressing the loss of the sign in Walthamstow back in 2014: <a href="https://ghostsigns.co.uk/2017/10/rip-london-co-op-frederic-street/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://ghostsigns.co.uk/2017/10/rip-london-co-op-frederic-street/</a>.<br>
<br>
In the book, we focused our research on signs that can still be seen, which we felt was important for its utility. However, the lost Co-Op sign in east London was slotted in on the acknowledgements page. This was in recognition of the fact that scores of people and organisations co-operated with us in the research effort that went into the book, and it wouldn't have been possible without their collective efforts.<br>
