People living on a road in North Wales have taken matters into their own hands by turning a road full of potholes into a tourist attraction.
Signs have been erected in the village of Pontfadog in Wrexham advertising “Pothole Land”.
The sign says that, the attraction features the “deepest, longest, widest potholes in Wales”.
“Two kilometres of award winning potholes with very little actual road to spoil your fun,” the caption on the sign adds.
The council has now begun work to fill the potholes, though many are not yet fully filled.
Local farmer Donald Roberts, said lots of the potholes were “impassable”.
“It has come to this signage down the road to get some result,” Mr Roberts said.
Wrexham County Borough Council declined to comment.

Hi Bob, Here’s my song suggestion for this week. Staying state side this band originated from New York
Back in the early 70s they had some big hits the main one being Dance With Me, but the song I’m thinking of is Still The One. The band is Orleans, as the name suggests their influences came from the southern and west coast.
Song for Daphne – “Always” is a popular song written by Irving Berlin in 1925, as a wedding gift for his wife Ellin Mackay, whom he married in 1926, and to whom he presented the substantial royalties.
Over the years there have been many successful recordings of the song, two of which became number-one sellers.
