Liverpool city centre has been a hive of activity since shops, bars and restaurants reopened for outdoor hospitality in April.
But those who have headed out to venues on Berry Street may not have cast their eyes upwards for long enough to notice two "ghost signs" sitting opposite each other.
They offer a glimpse of the former uses of both buildings as well as a fascinating insight into the city's past.
The first sign is an antique-looking advertisement on the side of Red Door which appears to be describing some kind of beverage.
It was first spotted on the side of the building in May last year, after the demolition of Bar 53, which was destroyed in a fire.
The bar has since been relocated to Seel Street.

It took 10 fire crews to eventually bring the blaze under control on Berry Street, with surrounding buildings remaining closed for days afterwards.
Just days after the fire, demolition crews moved in to knock down the remnants of the building.
Although faded, the words "pints" and "half pints" can be seen on the sign as well as what looks like old pre-decimal money markings.
At the bottom of the sign, the words "supplied in screw stopper bottles" is clearly legible.
The building was once home to the Black Horse and Rainbow pub and later became the Metropolitan and the Lemon Lounge, before opening as Red Door.
On the opposite side of the street another ghost sign has also appeared, on the corner of Berry Street and Seel Street.
The sign at number 32 dates back to when the building was home to Grants superstore which sold everything from bedding and homeware to kids clothes.
