Road signs are now being replaced in Kerrier district with dual English and Cornish language versions.

Kerrier district council policy to replace old or missing signs is linked to another scheme - to see where the Cornish language can also be used. Members agreed to the move last year.

About 300 signs have been replaced since the measure began last year, and another 300 are set to be changed despite some parish councils in the southern part of the district claiming it to be a waste of money.

Councillor Loveday Jenkin said the dual language signs cost the same as the originals.

Miss Jenkin said signs would not be replaced unless they are damaged or absent.

"Part of celebrating our cultural identity is the opportunity to use Cornish on street signs at no additional costs. The costs of producing signs, whether they are in English or are bilingual, are the same."

The new signs have English first and a small line beneath in Cornish.
