Lost CDs in central Oxford near Carfax Tower
I lost a small blue CD case this morning in central Oxford. At about 9:15 am I was leaving the Bodleian Library through Carfax when I realized the case wasn’t in my bag. Inside are about a dozen CDs—indie rock, a classical recital, and a college choir recording—kept in a faded blue sleeve with a green sticker. They’re sentimental, especially the recital CD from my dad’s university days. I wandered from Carfax Tower toward the Radcliffe Camera to retrace my steps, checking benches and the Covered Market area, but I couldn’t find it. If found, I hope someone can return it through the site.
Lost black personal bag with gold-like zip
When helping my disable husband to board ST2 bus at the stop Millway Close (in Mere Rd in Wolvercote Oxford) on June 18 at 13:09, I left behind on the pavement a black personal bag with a golden-like zip on the top. When returned to the place in about 20 minutes, the bag was not there any more. The bag contained a selection of plastic shopping bags and a black coffee mug with a special top with a small opening and a plastic straw. No valuables are in the bag, it just has a sentimental value because it was a gift.
Lost Driver's License in Oxford
Last Friday around 6:45 pm, I realized my driver's license was missing from my coat pocket after a stroll near the Oxford Covered Market. I retraced my steps along High Street toward Carfax Tower, but the square had already emptied and the breeze seemed to hide it. The license has my photo and address, and I have an appointment next week that relies on it. If you've found it, please message me through the site and we can arrange a pickup from a central point in Oxford.
Found a set of pins near Oxford Station today.
I was walking back from a seminar at Mansfield College when I spotted a tin of pins by the Oxford Station entrance around 3:40 pm today. A handful had spilled from a card, the enamel catching the light as the buses rumbled by. There was a red bus pin, a blue owl, and a tiny gold circle with a motto I couldn't quite read. I know how it feels to misplace something personal, so I picked them up and kept them safe, hoping the rightful owner spots this and recognizes them.
FOUND: Equipment for Various Sports near Oxford Covered Market
At 6:20 pm today, while I was leaving the Oxford Covered Market, I spotted a sports bag left on a bench near the entrance to Carfax. I checked inside and found Equipment for Various Sports—a tennis racket, a football, a jump rope, and a dusty pair of trainers—with chalk on the zipper and a gym towel tucked in the pocket. There was no name tag, just a faint hint of grass and sweat. It reminded me how easy it is to misplace something important after a busy day of errands, so I kept it safe and handed it to the staff at the Oxford University Sports Centre, hoping the owner would see this listing and claim it soon.
Black Samsung 32-inch smart TV with remote
I lost my black Samsung 32-inch smart TV yesterday around 3pm near the Covered Market on Cornmarket Street in Oxford. The TV is in good condition with no cracks, but there's a small dent on the bottom edge and a blue sticker on the back that reads 'Property of MK'. I rely on it for editing videos for my freelance gigs, so it's not just entertainment—it's essential for work and I really need it back. If you found it, please message me here so we can figure out the easiest way to arrange a return.

Blue ceramic teapot with floral pattern
I found a blue ceramic teapot this afternoon around 2:15pm outside the Covered Market entrance on Cornmarket Street, Oxford. It's about a 6-cup size with a glossy glaze and a subtle white floral pattern circling the body. The lid knob is a small brass-colored piece, and there’s a tiny chip on the rim that’s visible up close. The bottom is stamped with the initials 'A.J.' which helped me spot it; the handle has a light brown leather wrap that’s a bit worn. No obvious brand, but it feels like a cherished piece, so I wanted to post it here so the owner can reclaim it.

Sterling silver heart necklace, initials EM
I lost my sterling silver heart necklace yesterday around 3pm outside the Covered Market entrance on Cornmarket Street in Oxford. It’s a slim 18-inch chain with a small heart pendant, and the back is engraved with the initials EM. It’s sentimental to me—my sister gave it to me, and I wear it every day—so I’m really hoping it’s found. The chain has a slight tarnish from daily wear and there’s a tiny scratch on the heart that I’d recognize.
Blue hardcover copy of The Remains of the Day
I lost my blue hardcover edition of The Remains of the Day yesterday around 5pm near Blackwell's Bookshop on Broad Street in Oxford. The spine is cracked and the dust jacket has a small tear at the top edge, with a coffee ring on the front cover. Inside the front cover I left a note with my initials 'P.P.' and the date; I also flagged page 214 with a bright yellow sticky note. It has sentimental value—it's a gift from my late aunt, and I really need it back.
Brass pocket watch found on Broad Street
I found a brass pocket watch this afternoon around 2:15 pm on Broad Street near the Covered Market in Oxford. It's a small brass case, about 2 inches across, with a glass face and a worn black leather fob. The back is engraved with the initials 'P.K.' and the glass has a tiny crack; the ticking is still steady when I move it. I know it probably meant a lot to someone, so I’d really like to help get it back to its owner.
Red emergency contact card lost in Oxford
I lost my red-edged emergency contact card yesterday around 4pm somewhere near the Bodleian Library on Broad Street in Oxford. The card is the size of a credit card, white with a thin red border, and it has 'Emergency Contacts' printed on the front. My name, Emma Patel, is on it along with two phone numbers: my campus line and my mom's cell. In the lower-right corner there are etched initials 'EP' and a tiny Oxford crest sticker on the back. It's not just a piece of plastic—it's how I reach family in an emergency, and I really need it back. If you find it, please text me at [email protected] or call my campus line; I can meet you anywhere near High Street or Broad Street to grab it.
Lost gray tabby with blue collar, Milo
Hi there, I'm really worried about my cat Milo. He's a medium-sized gray tabby with a white chest and two white paws, and he wears a blue nylon collar with a tiny silver bell. I last saw him yesterday around 6pm near the Covered Market on Broad Street in Oxford; he dashed off when a cyclist zoomed by and I couldn't catch him. He has a small notch on his right ear and a faint white spot on his nose, which I hope helps someone recognize him. Milo is usually affectionate but skittish with strangers, so I'd be beyond grateful to get him back home; he's my family's little shadow and this has been really stressful.
