Just realised that whilst I was on holiday, I missed the thrilling denoument to the 2016 Pub Sign of the Year award. This year, it has gone to Old Hunters Tavern in Stalybridge. You can see the sign in Wynne Route's latest photo and on the Inn Sign Society website (although they have annoyingly put all their interesting content on a Member's Only page, making it difficult to try and promote this award). http://www.innsignsociety.com/Default.aspx
