Drivers were faced with an unusual sight this morning as a swan wandered down a busy road in Penryn.

Michelle Dunne, spotted the animal 'swanning around' this morning on Commercial Road, describing it as: "Not your average Monday".

Footage shows drivers stopped behind the animal to let it pass.

Drivers already face some disruption when driving through the area where the sighting took place, due to roadworks which have been taking place this year.

Temporary traffic lights are currently in place on Commercial Road as South West Water work to install a new sewerage system.

Works, which began in January, are expected to complete by the end of March.
