From our local (Yorkshire) evening paper - the story of stolen medals and papers etc which have been found in a box under a hedgrow. Police are trying to return them to their owner - do you know who owns them?

Story 'HERE'

Some of the medals found include a Military Cross, a DSO and an MM:

Thanks Kim, I've posted notice of this on the Canadian Forum.

What a wonderful collection! Obviously treasured and lovingly kept by someone.

I wonder if it could be an elderly person who may not realise it's missing, or the owner died and it was found during a house clearance (and maybe hidden under a hedge by an employee realising it's worth)

Whatever the scenario, hope it can be re-united with a rightful owner. If no-one claims it would it go to a museum?

Suppose they would have to wait for a period of time?
