Police are trying to track down the owner of a mystery wallet which was discovered down the back of council toilet after being lost for 35 years. The brown wallet containing a one pound note, stamps worth 18p and receipts from 1987 were found at Old Market Hall, in Matlock, Derbyshire, on Tuesday.
Council staff made the discovery at the back of a disabled toilet cistern inside the building and alerted Derbyshire Police officers. The force has now posted an appeal on social media in the hope of reuniting the lost property back with its rightful owner.
It is believed the wallet may have some connection to the Adkin family, who lived in Victoria Court in Matlock. Matlock, Cromford, Wirksworth and Darley Dale Safer Neighbourhood Policing Team posted on Facebook: "We need your help.
