Walkers and cyclists have been left baffled in a Greater Manchester town after a bizarre discovery on a footpath. Residents in Radcliffe noticed the unusual item had been left on the ground yesterday (May 17) - and some wished they hadn't seen it at all.

"Anyone lost their teeth?." The post amused locals, with more than 200 people commenting, including many tagging their friends and asking if they had 'lost their teeth'.
Others were quick to respond with witty puns, with one commenter posting: "Someone will be chomping at the bit to get these back." Another simply asked: "Is this still available?"
Not everyone was pleased to see the teeth though, with one resident commenting: "Ha, I cycled past these on the way home from work. Not something I expected (or wanted) to see again."
