A SNAKE has been found in a Cirencester garden, with a vet looking after it until its owners come forward.

Emma Wilson, of Great Western Exotic Vets in Swindon, said: “It was found in somebody’s back garden on Siddington Road on Wednesday.”

She did not want to disclose the species of snake, but said it is being held at the vets until someone comes to claim it.
