Pub Signs at Lewes Arms

Anybody know what the planning application regarding pub signage is about? I cannot seem to get on the planning web site. I assume they are trying to replace the Lewes Arms with something like a Fullers logo. At the same time what is that ghastly sign outside the Pelham now?

Perhaps someone should give them some newspaper clippings, web addresses etc. just to let them know what they are letting themselves in for.
They may just be asking for permission to paint "Fullers" on the walls.

Finally managed to get on the planning site and I can't seem to find any pictures of the new hanging sign except "We are planning only to replace the existing pictorial panel with variations to the style of the image" Not sure how you can vary the Lewes Arms without going to the Heralds! They are also shoving a Fullers Cartouche on the side.

Why don't you just ask Abby what they are planning - or drop into the planning department and ask to see the file. It's a good point. I am sure Fullers have no more sense than Greene King when it comes to matters of taste and they could well have large flashing plastic logos in mind.

Even the evil Greene King never tried to change the hanging pub sign, nor Beards in fact.
Abi advises that she is waiting to hear back from her rep regarding details of the proposed changes

I reckon there might be one or two objections.
How old is the existing sign?
"to replace the existing pictorial panel with variations to the style of the image" Isn't it handy that arseholes talk like this, it makes it much easier to identify them!

Have emailed the local area rep for the brewery - she was quite informative about the original plans when Fullers took over - will keep you all posted...
Interesting to note that there are four planning applications attached to the post outside the door...

2 ordinary + 2 listed - In fact two applications. One for toilets and one for signage.
The pictures they have on the planning web site have the sign blanked out - all I could find was that statement. I have made a comment to planning that more information is needed.
The cartouche is shown in the photo.

Sorry - forgot to ask again about what happened to the Pelham Arms (Coat of Arms thereof)?
