Drivers in Coventry spotted an unexpected bit of roadside furniture as they drove through their city after a Welsh road sign was placed to warn of a closed street.
A 'road ahead closed' sign was spotted on Sandy Lane in the English city but with the initial writing in Welsh – ffordd ymlaen ar gau – and the English translation written underneath.
It is not known at this point how or why the sign came to be used in Coventry. It was spotted by Philip Handy and shared with some puzzlement on social media. It prompted dozens of reactions. Philip told CoventryLive : "I thought I would send a picture to my daughter-in-law as she is Welsh and lives in north Wales. I think it's probably a sign that was picked up years back when workers were working in Wales. It could have been kicking round in store and used by mistake."
