Officers are appealing for the owners of this property to come forward so that it can be returned to them.

PC Vicky New, of GMP's Tameside district, said: "The pocket watch in particular is very unique so we believe that it could hold great sentimental value to someone who is missing it and are keen for it to be returned to its rightful owner."

If anyone has any information about these items of jewellery and who they may belong to please contact police on 0161 856 9259 quoting log number 805 of 04/01/22.
