This Graffiti has been on this road sign since approximately 1982. It is presumed to relate to Gail Tilsley (a fictional character in the TV soap opera Coronation Street) - now known as Gail Platt. Whether by chance or by design the actor who played Gail's on screen husband (Brian) lived opposite this sign in a cottage next to the Old Red Lion pub.
