This sign is on the end wall of a small extension to a large warehouse at the back of premises on the High Street now occupied by Robert Dyas, the household outlet.
The extension is of three storeys, two bays wide, and has a hipped, tiled roof. The top storey has had two new windows and frames inserted which has destroyed the signage painted on the end wall, this wall was originally blank above first floor level. A smaller building used to abutt this wall as can be seen from the painted diagonals on it.
The remains of the sign read:
BEE.
