Controversial Hollywood style Carmarthen sign that cost £136k ripped apart by wind

Parts of a controversial ‘Hollywood sign’ welcoming people into a Welsh town which cost more than £130,000 have been ripped off and blown away by Storm Eunice.

The sign is located on a grassy bank to the side of the eastbound carriageway of the A40 on the way into Carmarthen from the direction of St Clears.

It displayed the words ‘Caerfyrddin’ and ‘Carmarthen’ and was erected in May 2021, two years after it was first given approval.
