A wheelie bin has mysteriously appeared on top of a lamp post.
The green bin was seen in a residential street next to a bus shelter in West Oxfordshire yesterday.
Storm Barra: Power cuts in Oxfordshire - See the list of affected areas
In a Twitter thread, West Oxfordshire District Council said it wasn't sure whether Storm Barra blew the bin onto the lamp post or whether someone was responsible.
It said in a tweet: "We aren’t sure whether a particularly strong gust caught this bin or if someone had a few too many sherries before putting out their bins last night."
With Storm Barra passing over please continue to be careful as there may be fallen trees or apparently bins deposited on lamp posts.

The council reminded people that it is a criminal act to take someone's bin and that leaving them in a 'precarious position' is dangerous.
