Carved Wooden Sign in Wandsworth Road
The sign was temporarily uncovered during renovations. I tried to find the origin of the shop but the only Edward Needes business I could find a reference to was a pawnbroker in the Old Kent Road before the First World War.

'Lambeth' sign in Wandsworth Road
It's not clear whether this serves any functional purpose - cycle stands perhaps?

London Clapham Hotel, Wandsworth Road
A splendid frontage to what is now a hotel run by Premier Inns.
And it is only a frontage, you can see the rest of the hotel looming over the top. But as to what it was originally, I don't know.
Hotel websites tend to want you to book rooms, not ask questions about history.

Cedars Motor Engineering Co
This building on Cedars Road displays a fascinating palimpsest of painted signs. It appears to have originally been a livery stable or similar, with signs including "horses bought or sold", "horses and carriages jobbed for any period", "traveller contracts" and "Broughams supplied".
In a later motorised age, these were over-written with signs such as "cars for hire", "weddings - theatres - stations", "repairs" and the name "Cedars Motor Eng'ing Com".
As of 2010 there was a property agent's sign promoting the site as a "development opportunity" so it could soon be gone.
