Sign of the Ring o' Bells


Take a last look at the sign for the Ring o' Bells on Stockport Road. The pub is the latest in the area to shut up shop and the sign probably won't remain here much longer.

See how the pub looks now on Hyde DP Xtra.

A contribution to signs, signs.

  1. It is sad to see pubs disappear. They had a great name and sign.

  3. Good thing you captured this sign and the pub (on your other blog) before they are completely gone and forgotten. They photos will be useful for looking back at town history.

    Thanks for your visit and comment on my sign.

  9. Oh, I think that it would be so much fun to have that sign and put it on your property. Closing down? Truly a sign of the times!
