BRISTOLAND

An unusual addition to the Portway in Bristol. Somebody in January 2014 has erected letters on one side of the Avon Gorge to spell Bristoland. This is clearly a nod towards the famous Hollywood sign on Mount Lee in Los Angeles. That sign, created in 1923, originally spelled "Hollywoodland" but the "land" part was removed in 1949. This sign seems to have already lost its "O" but that is doubtless unintentional!
