Valuable lost property

If any valuable lost property is handed in please can you make every effort to contact the reader by email or phone. If you can’t identify the reader or contact them please if the item is very valuable e.g ipad ring the City police to report it just in case the reader contacts them to report the item stolen etc. If you are unsure ask the supervisor on duty.

Thanks

In 1986, 900 years after the original Domesday Book, the BBC published the Domesday Project. The project an attempt to capture the essence of life in the United Kingdom. Over a million people contributed to this digital snapshot of the country & I was one of then at school in Bedlington at the time.
