If you are from Glasgow, one of the things taken very seriously, is the traffic cone on the Duke of Wellington's head. It must remain.

The world-famous statue in Queen Street - just outside GoMA - is usually seen with a standard traffic cone on his head.

Someone has however, decided that one cone was not enough for the statue and that a grand total of six cones would suit the Duke better.

Glasgow restaurant, The Indian, shared a snap on Twitter of the statue, sporting the mountain of cones piled high above his head.

They said: "This guy will be HOT with all these hats on - but not at hot as our hot curries! #Glasgow."

Another Twitter user also spotted the Duke yesterday with more cones than usual.

Earlier this month, the statue was seen balancing just two cones on his crown.

In 2011, the Lonely Planet guide included the monument of Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington in its list of the top 10 most bizarre monuments on earth.

Capping the statue with a traffic cone has been a regular event and is believed to date back to the first half of the 1980s.

Could this be a new record for the most traffic cones to cap the Duke?
