A couple left mystified by the theft of their pub sign are offering a reward to help catch the culprits.
Paul and Tracey Green, who took over the Plume of Feathers in Penhallow near Truro nine years ago, said the aluminium sign went missing on Wednesday.
Mr Green installed the sign around half a mile from the pub on the A3075 eight years ago.
He said: "It is 4ft by 3ft and was cut off. I don't understand why anybody would want to remove it."
He said there are five pubs with the same name in Cornwall but didn't believe any of his competitors would go to such lengths and take the black and red sign.
"It's such a silly thing to have done because I will recognise my own sign."
The couple, who reported the theft to police, are offering an unspecified cash reward for information leading to the conviction of the culprit.
Anyone with information can call police on 101 quoting crime reference GR13308.
