The Nanteos Cup Credit: West Mercia police

West Mercia police have found the Nanteos Cup, almost one year after it went missing.

The wooden chalice, a religious relic claimed to be the cup from which Christ drank from at the Last Supper, was stolen during a burglary in Weston Under Penyard in July last year.

Detectives say they "received several significant lines of inquiry" from anonymous sources, which led to its recovery on Friday 19 June.
