Some marks are difficult to read, yet alone work out who made them. A prime example is the wall surrounding Hodges yard. This wall has been there for a very long time, so who made the marks, and, were they all done at the same time? As you will see below, they don’t appear to be graffiti, but it is difficult to read them. |
Hodges, around 1906. You can just see the wall over the hedge on the right of the picture |
Hodges in late 2009 |
This is clearly an “A” |
Letters of some kind |
Even in closeup it is very difficult to determine the actual character more specialised lighting is required |
