A 100-year-old badly damaged rocking horse has been lovingly restored by a local carpenter in Jersey.
James Haycock has spent many months tidying up the worn out toy at his workshop in St Ouen. Dating back to the 1920s, it first came into his possession after being given it by the family of Dom Bisson - a local painter and decorator in the island who passed away several years ago.

And after spending many hours restoring it to its former glory, James then spent time tracking down its original owner in the island, a lady called Debbie Miller.
