A sign of the times

I am not planning to turn this blog into a rant vehicle but the absence of an apostrophe in the phrase "childrens play area" really bugs me.

This is a new sign at the recently rebranded Springhead pub in Sutton Poyntz on the east side of Weymouth. Somebody has obviously paid a decent wedge for this sign but neither the writer nor the purchaser picked up the grammatical error. Sad.

The pub itself is only average but is in a great location with a duck pond at the front and views of the White Horse from the garden in the back.
