A mum-of-two couldn't believe her eyes after coming across a century-old Dairy Milk bar sleeve beneath the original bathroom floorboards of her 1930s house. Emma Young, who'd been renovating her home at the time, initially assumed she'd just unearthed some old rubbish, however, after brushing the dust away, she realised she'd come across a little piece of history.
The 'beautiful' rectangular cardboard sleeve, which is nearly one hundred years old, had Cadbury's' distinctive purple packaging and appeared to be in 'pristine' condition, so much so that Emma believes it could simply be popped back on the shelf.
At first, the communications consultant didn't recognise the gold-lettered wrapper as a chocolate bar but quickly realised it must be pretty old as it bore a 'six pence' price tag.
