What is recorded here
Sign post in Castletown gives you the place name in Irish and English, with a finely detailed harp beside them. Even the directions have brought an instrument. Ask where you are and you could be there for the evening.
Cast-iron sign post, c.1940, with raised lettering, border and harp emblem.
This signpost is of a simple though well executed design. The plain lettering of the Irish and English names for the town contrast with the delicately detailed harp emblem, which adds artistic detailing to this functional object.
