Bullet holes

Looks like bullet holes in that sign to me.
All around in the walls were some too.
I really wonder what on earth happened there.
I can think of the wildest stories.

This is another shot from the old abandoned country estate. Yet more to come.

Moeglich, Ingrid.
Allerdings sind die Loecher ueberall und bei manchen Ecken sieht's aus wie Granatenloecher.

There's got to be one heck of a story behind that shot. You'll have to share it with us if you ever find out what it is.

My goodness...I do love the photo. Such great composition. And what a saga the sign could tell us if it could talk.

My Ruby Tuesday is posted. I'd love to have your company. Come visit won't you? Happy day to you greetings.

could be something sinister, or just target practice, I suppose.

Yikes! That certainly makes you wonder, doesn't it.
Hope no one was standing on the other side of that.

This happens all the time in the US with sign -- they're largely target practice. What does the sign say?

The sign says, roughly -
Fire Hazard. Do not use open flame. Smoking is not allowed.

Cool. Apparently, target practice is.

I think I'd feel quite uneasy at the thought of people out there with guns doing target practice... I hope it's just rust!

'Round the red-rimmed sign
rusting holes tell stories of
battles long ago.

Thanks everyone.

@Mary - courtesy to Lou's translation attempt: "The sign says, roughly -
Fire Hazard. Do not use open flame. Smoking is not allowed."

@Janice - the hunters scare me more. They are more than often drunk.

I guess the answer to your question would depend a lot on how long those holes have been there. They could be WWII vintage even. Although, you'd think the rust would have put paid to the sign in that amount of time if that were the case.

Great photo however long ago the place got perforated!

Interesting and a little eerie to begin imagining what might have happened there.
