Ghost sign, Castleton
I am fascinated by the faint traces of advertising signage can occasionally be seen on old established buildings. This one was painted and is on a sandstone cottage on Church Street, Castleton as it climbs up to the village centre. Too faint now to be readable though. I don’t suppose the parish council would agree if similar was proposed nowadays.
Apparently, the sign referred to the Robin Hood and Little John Inn. See https://www.francisfrith.com/castleton,yorkshire/castleton-main-street-c1955_c722007

Church of St. Michael and St. George, Castleton
A modern church built after World War I as a memorial to the fallen. The benches, altar panels and screen were made by Robert Thompson, the "mouse man of Kilburn", so named because of the tiny carvings of mice on his work.

Castleton main street
Looking down the lower end of the main street in Castleton. The tightly packed terraces here suggest more of an urban townscape, despite this being a modest sized village.

Mouse carving on the gatepost of the church of St. Michael and St. George, Castleton
There are several carvings of tiny mice inside the church, created by Robert Thompson, known as the "mouse man of Kilburn". This example is not well preserved because of its life out of doors. Thompson (1876 - 1955) was a furniture maker who lived in Kilburn, North Yorkshire. The mice became his trade mark appearing on pews, altar panels, screens and furniture.
