A homeowner is searching for answers after an obscure inscription was found written underneath a stone slab in his garden patio.
Builders made the discovery while working on the 300-year-old home of John Adams in Norbury, Shropshire.
Mr Adams shared a photograph on social media to try to work out what the text might say with several people suggesting it was in Hebrew.

Experts at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem have been contacted to see if they can translate the stone.
