Signage plays a vital part in promoting and reinforcing the rural character of the Surrey Hills area.

=== Village Signs ===

Finger Posts ===

Surrey Hills directional finger posts should contain the following elements; 
[[File:Finger post 1.jpg]] 
1 Village Name 
2 Mileage 
3 Chevron (optional) 
 
Surrey Hills Finger Posts are designed using 6 x 6inch wooden oak posts which are generally 3.5m long of which 0.8m is in the ground. The white directional sign is constructed from hard wearing lightweight foamex which is 19mm thick. The finger posts come in three lengths, standard, medium and long to accommodate the number of characters in village names. 
 
Example of standard, medium & long length finger posts;

These directional posts are used on country lanes with lower speed limits (not on principal roads). 
 
Verge Posts ===

Verge Posts are useful for indicating the edges of roads and potential hazards, and contain reflective areas which increase their visibility to motorists both in the day and at night. Surrey Hills verge posts are made from 4 x 4 inch wooden oak posts. These are generally 1.6m long with a reflective circle on the front and back and can be sourced from local sawmills.
