Around The Square the frontages are traditional, and a sign that respects the building usually works better here than a loud one. Painted or timber-look fascias, halo-lit letters and a hanging or projecting sign suit the village well.
Visitors walking from the castle grounds and Blarney Woollen Mills pass the shops at an angle, so a projecting sign often does more than the fascia does.
Blarney moved into the city council area in 2019, which surprises many people given how rural it feels.

Planning permission
Since the 2019 boundary change, Blarney is in the Cork City Council area. Most shop signs need permission because built-up letters are usually taller than the 300 mm exemption limit. On a traditional village street, the planners are likely to look closely at size, lighting and materials. Our planning guide explains the limits.
Questions from Blarney
What kind of sign suits a shop on Blarney's Square?
Usually a traditional fascia with built-up or halo-lit letters and a hanging or projecting sign. We show you a mock-up on a photo of your building before anything is made.
Is Blarney in the city or county for planning?
The city. Blarney came under Cork City Council in the May 2019 boundary change.
Can you make a hanging sign?
Yes. We make fixed and hanging projecting signs, lit or unlit, with brackets made in our workshop.
Have you made signs in Blarney before?
The finished jobs on this site are in Cork city, including Phonetastic, Dixy Chicken, Speedo, Sky Smoke 1 and Smoke City. A job in Blarney runs the same way: we measure and photograph the building, send a mock-up and a written quote, then make the sign in Ballinora and fit it ourselves.
