Buyer pays £2,100 for selfie mountain sign

A sign at the top of Pen Y Fan which has appeared in thousands of peoples' selfies has been bought for £2,100.

The National Trust has replaced the 20-year-old sign on the summit and auctioned it off.

It said the peak in the Brecon Beacons has witnessed marriage proposals, cheers of joy and many personal accomplishments.

Auctioneer Ben Rogers Jones said: "We had more bids on that lot than anything else - bids from all over the country, there was a lot of competition for it."
