Catch them while you can; ghost signs don't last forever.

Sadly, when John Connell headed out to photograph this multi-layered palimpsest in Wakefield, it was gone, lost to aggresive cleaning of the brick between 2016–23.

My guess is that this was an off licence, but maybe someone with local knowledge might remember?

@ghostsigns http://breweryhistory.com/wiki/index.php?title=List_of_Tadcaster_Tower_Brewery_Co._Ltd._pubs No specific name, other than that it's owned by the Tadcaster Tower Brewery Co, but it is given as an off-licence in 1936.
