Henry Adams, Haslemere

Founded in 1990 in Chichester, Henry Adams has now thirteen branches across Sussex, Surrey and Hampshire. I do not know when their Haslemere office opened but this sign looks very recent.

This newly painted sign covers almost completely an earlier ghost sign. Only the upper part of the first line has survived but that is enough to identify it as

Harrods

A quick search through issues of Country Life from the 1960s and 1970s reveals Harrods Estate once had an office at 56A, High Street indeed.
