Doms Cafe

Anyone who lives in the area will know Doms Cafe on Green lanes....and I suspect all of you will have noticed the signage above the premises ..well dear reader, I was a liitle disturbed today to find out find out that the new owner is taking the old signage down and replacing it with something a bit more " modern "

This old green sign with chrome lettering goes back to the sixties ( and maybe beyond ) to when it was an ice cream parlour... ( I have this on very good authority , from my sister who is a few years older than myself ) does anyone know if there is a legal mechanism in which prohibits the removal of old signs like this one ??

hi - did you find out any info? I really love it, and let's face it, there aren't that many aesthetically pleasing things on that part of the road! L

Perhaps we all need to go to Dom's and tell them how much we like their sign and persuade them to keep it? I love that sign. And as Leigh says, there aren't many good ones on that bit of Green Lanes.

I got a snap of Dom's today - should have got there earlier for better light, but you get the idea.

Yes, sadly the sign was changed over the weekend - what a shame.

They sell jackets? That is entrepreneurial diversification.

Yes, and did you spot the unnecessary pluralisation of "Panini"?
