I understand that these signs were put up by Enfield Council less than 15 years ago. I'm not aware of any others. Seems unlikely: councils aren't normally allowed to put up signs conveying false information. Lots of places have signs but no distinct government. I think I've seen "England" on signs, and even "London" is rather complex concept to pin down as a specific "thing". The late and unlamented Humbers*de put up signs saying "England's newest county", but presumably the unloved concept was no different in age to Avon etc. -- Arthur Figgis Surrey, UK |
