A Kesgrave man has recovered his grandfather s long-lost medals awarded for his service in the First World War after spotting them listed for sale at an auction.
Iain Dunnett, who describes himself as a bit of a history buff , leaves his surname registered with auctioneers in case an item related to his family ever comes up.
The 57-year-old received an email a few weeks ago after a series of medals awarded to Edward Robert Dunnett - Mr Dunnett s grandfather, who died in 1981 - were up for auction with London-based firm Dix Noonan Webb.
