A pub in has attracted attention after a risqué sign was put in place

Posted on April 9, 2014
The sign proclaimed to the world: “THE WIG AND PEN IS OPEN FOR BUSINESS”.

Unfortunately, as can be seen in the picture below, the creator of the sign did not leave sufficient space between the words ‘pen’ and ‘is’.

The sign, which has now been taken down, was put in place to make customers aware the pub remained open throughout the South West Water works that closed some streets in Truro to traffic.

The pub, on the corner of Frances St and Castle Street, takes its name from the crown court nearby.

The Wig and Pen serves food in the bar and in its downstairs restaurant, Quills, and has been nominated in the West Briton’s What’s On Cornwall Awards for best eatery in Cornwall.

Nobody from the pub was available to comment on the sign.
