Lost round silver bracelet in Oxford
Please help! I lost a round silver bracelet in Oxford between 10.30 AM and 7.30 PM on 22 March, likely while cycling between Mount St/Jericho and Manor Rd/St Catz (via Lamb and Flag passage), or between Manor Rd/St Catz and Hill Farm/Marston (via the Marston bike path starting at Uni Parks, Crofton Road Playground). The bracelet is a bit less than half an inch of width and has a woven pattern in the middle (see photo). It has a stamp with 825 inside. It is jewelery I inherited from my late mum, so has huge personal value. REWARD OFFERED! Please email [email protected]
Brass compass with leather fob
I lost a small brass compass with a brown leather fob yesterday around 3pm. It's about 2 inches across, with a worn brass finish and a tiny crack in the glass. The back is engraved with the initials 'LH' and there’s a frayed blue thread looped through the brass ring. The category is Other Miscellaneous Items. It was a gift from my grandfather and means a lot to me, especially for my field trips, so I’d really appreciate getting it back. If you found it near the Covered Market on Market Street in Oxford or by Blackwell's on Broad Street, drop me a message.
Black Labrador mix with red collar near Broad Street
I lost my black Labrador mix named Scout yesterday around 3pm near the Covered Market on Broad Street in Oxford. Scout is about 60 pounds with a short black coat and a white patch on his chest. He wears a bright red collar and a blue name tag that says 'Scout'; there's a small scar on his right ear from a toy incident last year. He can be a little wary of strangers but he's friendly and loves treats. Our family is really worried—Scout means the world to us and I really need him back.
Blue Contigo mug with octopus sticker
I lost my blue Contigo travel mug yesterday around 4:15pm near the Covered Market on Cornmarket Street in Oxford. It's a 16-ounce stainless steel mug with a matte blue finish, a black lid, and a red button you press to open. On the bottom there's a small white octopus sticker I stuck there myself, plus a faint coffee ring stain around the rim from daily use. It’s a little scuffed from being banged around in my bag, but it still keeps heat surprisingly well. This mug is sentimental because it was a gift from my aunt overseas, and I really need it back. If you’ve seen it, please message me—I’ll swing by the Market or the university library to pick it up.
Brass Yale keys on red keyring, Oxford
I lost my set of keys yesterday around 5:30pm after I left the bus stop at Queen Street by the Covered Market on Cornmarket Street in Oxford. It's a standard brass Yale house key on a bright red silicone keyring, with a small silver USB drive and a tiny enamel penguin charm attached. There are about six keys in total, and one key has the initials 'AH' engraved on the head. The whole thing is a bit worn and has a few scratches. This set opens my flat, mailbox, and bike lock, so it's really stressing me out to be without them. If anyone found them, please get in touch—I’d be forever grateful to get them back.
Gray Nike sneakers found near Broad Street
I found a pair of gray Nike running shoes this afternoon around 1:45pm outside Blackwell's on Broad Street in Oxford. They're UK size 9, with white soles and a bright neon-green heel tab on the left shoe. One lace is slightly frayed and there’s a tiny red stain on the sole near the toe. I picked them up off the pavement behind a planter near the entrance after someone nearby pointed to them. If the owner recognizes these features, please reach out—we'd love to get them back; they look well-worn and obviously meaningful.
Black satin evening gown with silver brooch found
I found a black satin evening gown this afternoon around 2:15pm, lying over a bench outside Blackwell's on Broad Street, Oxford. It's a Calvin Klein collection piece, size UK 12, in good condition with a delicate silver brooch at the waist and a subtle crystal detailing along the neckline. The gown has a soft but sturdy feel and a navy-blue satin lining peeking from the slit at the back. One unique feature is a small fern-shaped pin attached to the inside of the bodice tag, with a faint perfume scent from last night. I'm hoping to get it back to its owner soon; happy to help return it through the app.
Red knitted scarf with monogram tag
I found this red knitted scarf this afternoon around 3:15pm near the entrance to Carfax, right by the Oxford Covered Market. It's a thick, chunky knit in bright cherry red with black fringe at the ends. There’s a small brown leather tag stitched inside with the initials 'A.J.' and the label 'Acorn & Co.' I noticed a faint coffee stain on the inner edge and one corner is a little pilly, but it's in decent condition overall. If you think it's yours, message me here and we can arrange a safe handover near the Oxford Playhouse or on High Street later this week.
Guinea pig with tan/white fur near Covered Market
I found a guinea pig this afternoon around 4:15pm wandering near the entrance to Oxford's Covered Market on Market Street. It's a small, healthy-looking animal with tan and white fur and a blue bell on a red collar, plus a distinctive white heart-shaped patch on its left shoulder. It seemed a bit skittish but quickly settled after a passerby offered a leafy snack. I’d love to reunite it with its owner—if this is yours, describe the collar and patch to help confirm.
Found navy Barbour parka near Broad Street, Oxford
I found a navy Barbour-style parka this morning around 9:15am outside Blackwell's on Broad Street, Oxford. It's a medium size, waxed navy fabric with a brass zip and a faux fur hood, and the interior has a distinctive red tartan lining. One identifying feature is the brass fox-head zipper pull on the left chest pocket and a small orange tag near the bottom hem. There's a bit of wear around the cuffs, but overall it's in good condition. If this jacket belongs to you, I'm happy to arrange a quick meetup nearby or drop it off at the Covered Market.
