Incorrect information forced Oxford City Council to replace a street nameplate, it was revealed today.

The council had a Kenilworth Road sign made up instead of one for Kenilworth Avenue in East Oxford.

The mistake cost £126 to rectify.

Vale of the White Horse District Council said the name Limetree Close in Grove was missed off two signs, which cost £124 to fix.

The mistakes emerged after a freedom of information request.
