The grass has been mowed up to the sign, and no further.

I had to look up a source for this quote: https://www.scotsman.com/news/opinion/letters/the-diary-2508490
Apparently it was said on radio, but it’s quoted in the article.
Admittedly I’m from the US, but from what I remember watching a Last Week Tonight episode about Scotland wanting to breakaway, and seeing how they tend to be treated by UK leadership, I totally get it. I think it’s more than fair that England cut their own grass
In the US is really common to have the actual road turn into a pristine asphalt ribbon or into a Sarajevo-in-the-90s pot holed mess as you cross county or state lines.
Funny but as has been pointed out before they both mow their own sides and probably on different days.
