Just saw the lovely shop sign (really classy) for the new bottle store in Parliament Square.
Way it's going the bottle stores will be overtaking hairdressers and nail bars!

I've not seen the sign yet but as it's a conservation area they would probably need planning permission, which I suspect they don't have.Surferdude wrote:Just saw the lovely shop sign (really classy) for the new bottle store in Parliament Square.

Re: Hertford Wine
Reality check here - Blockbusters was hardly subtle!! Surely it can't be much worse than their frontage and big yellow bins left outside.
Re: Hertford Wine
Herford Food & Wine in The Wash had a similar issue when they put up their first unauthorised sign. They eventually had to take the sign down and put in a planning application for something more in keeping after they had a visit from the council's enforcement officer.
The sign may be one issue but another might be what they've done with the windows, effectively using them as a billboard.
Re: Hertford Wine
What permissions if any do they need and have they applied for them.

They need planning permission for the signage. There is no planning application for this address.Marilyn wrote:What permissions if any do they need and have they applied for them.

Re: Hertford Wine
Well I for one look am looking forward with anticipation to this new venture evidently aimed at the sizable number of wine lovers in this town. Since Oddbins went downhill those of us who enjoy the glory of the grape have been forced to look further afield to, say, The Wine Society in Stevenage. As Lay & Wheeler, Berry Bros , even Majestic have failed to plug the gap in Hertford then we should celebrate this fresh vintner & look forward to the first MW tutored tasting...

Oh yes I'm sure there'll be a wide and superior selection from some classic premier cru clarets to finest new world malbecs - oh - and whatever became of Special Brew?

Re: Hertford Wine
Why would the council give them a license to sell booze when the grapevine and castle shop are all within a stones throw.
