Pre-Worboys falling rock sign on B866, north of Colintrave
Fallen sign for fallen rock!
I posted a pic of this lovely old sign on here a couple of years ago (Sep 07) (near Colintraive on B866). I was along the same road today (May 09) and since the last pic, the pole has rusted around the sign bands to such a degree that it could no longer support the sign at the right height, so it has slid down the pole as you can see here.
