It's an Easter egg, or in this case, probably an Eisteddfod egg.

How to pronounce Welsh road signs.
So the language priorities are set by individual highway authorities, some placing English first and others Welsh.
No big deal but it does mean you get some weird looking signs on the side of the roads there. Irish signs look tidier than the Welsh ones because the name places generally aren't as long, and of course Ireland is a proper UN member state unlike Wales and Scotland so should have road signs in its own language.
Signs should really be in the language most widely understood by the populace of the state they're in, and Welsh isn't even the most widely spoken language in Wales!
Still, if it makes them happy ....
