How does this letter-form communicate its location?

Sherborne house, situated down Sherborne street in Bourton-On-The-Water, England. This sign was very high up and a challenge to photograph however it was the textures and the slightly imperfect edges that drew my attention to the sign. There is a hand made feel to this sign through the handcrafted typeface and structure. The sign positioning and size is grand, situated high up on the fence of a big manor house.
