Found brown suede ankle boots with buckle
Description
Found a pair of brown suede ankle boots this afternoon around 3:15pm, sitting on the pavement along Mayflower Street by the Barbican in Plymouth, Devon. They’re size 6, women's, branded Clarks, and they’ve got a distinctive brass buckle on the outer side with a faint blue stitch along the heel seam. The left boot is a touch darker than the right, and there’s a small scuff on the toe from wear. They were next to the bike racks by the cafe near the Mayflower Steps, so I figured someone might be missing them after a stroll along the waterfront. If these look familiar, send me a message and we can arrange returning them.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
