Ghost sign

HWW - I spotted the remains of an old sign in Gloucester. I believe it is advertising Talbot & Co.

Founded in 1845 by Thomas Talbot, this firm operated out of premises on Ladybellegate Street and Commercial Road (partially occupying the former Blackfriars Monastery site). While they started with mineral waters and ginger beer, they expanded by the turn of the 20th century to wholesale beer and cider bottling—notably for major names like Bass and Worthington.

Antique embossed "Talbot Gloucester" bottles are frequent finds for bottle collectors today
