Last month's project, for a forthcoming magazine article, involved an exploration of the history of road signs, and for someone who always looks for a 'hook' on which to hang a story, this road sign was a no-brainer. It allowed me to start my article by claiming that, from my home in deepest Wiltshire, I had managed to get to both Scotland and Ireland in just under 22 minutes, without needing to use either ferries or planes – or warp speed, for that matter – just my trusty Range Rover. The Scotland and Ireland in question are two tiny hamlets near Wiltshire's county town of Trowbridge, and despite having lived hereabouts for approaching two decades, I had never actually noticed the signpost before.
