Private lock ups and taxis, Havant

On the side of a building are two ghost signs that stand out thanks to the decorative foliage in the corners and the middle of the upper one and the unusual shape of the lower one.

The upper sign was painted twice. The original sign advertized a
Motor
Garage

The more recent one reads
Private
Lock Ups

The sign below was painted three times but only the most recent layer can be read:
Taxis

It's a shame the lower part has completely disappeared.
