RIVERSIDE walkers spotted a bizarre scene as a large pontoon with a shopping trolley and a traffic cone aboard floated down the river in Worcester

Worcester News Camera Club member Paul Harding took a picture of the funny scene - but had no idea where the pontoon had come from,

The picture was taken on Monday, June 12,  just as the pontoon floated past South Parade, on the banks of the River Severn.

Mr Harding's picture is captioned: "Convenient shopping trolly parking outside Browns."

A spokesperson for the Canal and Rivers Trust said it has not been reported.

However, it will be sending a team to retrieve the pontoon from further along the river to ensure it does not cause an obstruction.
