    Coastwatch Offices Martello Tower P South Seafront Langer Road Felixstowe Suffolk

    Non Illuminated Advertisement Consent - Replacement of existing 'NATIONAL COASTWATCH' sign on south east facing fascia above NCI Lookout windows on top of Martello Tower P, and an additional new sign 'CALL US ON CH65' on the south facing fascia. The original sign has been in place for over ten years and is delaminating badly. It is believed that the original sign may have schedule 13 consent already, if not full approval. The second sign would be new. Both signs would be powder coated aluminium in Pantone 2768 (RGB 12.28.71, CMYK,100,100,36,43),dark blue, with white lettering in Arial Bold. The signs would almost fill both fascias as stated above. Whilst the NCI lookout is on top of the Martello Tower P scheduled monument, the lookout is not part of that scheduled monument as of 2026 April
