A knitted tribute to Captain Sir Tom Moore has been found dumped in a field just hours after it was stolen from a village display near Grantham.
Andrea Harrison, of Allington Gardens, Allington, knitted the small figure last year as a tribute to the Second World War veteran, who became a household name for raising almost £33 million for the NHS by walking 100 laps of his garden, before he passed away with Covid-19 on Tuesday, aged 100.
In December, Andrea displayed the knitted character on the village Christmas tree and residents were invited to leave Christmas wishes on it.
