A woman has unearthed vintage pictures off a camera she bought from a charity shop a decade ago - and is now trying to find out who the precious pictures belong to and who the people are.

Katie Rose Williams bought the 1962 Bencini Koroll II camera in Conwy, Wales and printed the snaps out with her photography teacher years ago - but has only just discovered them.

Sharing the pictures on Facebook to try and find the people featured in the old gems, she has managed to find out who some of the people are - but hasn't found everyone.

She wrote in her post: "I bought this camera about a decade ago in a charity shop in North Wales then realised there was film still inside, I wonder if anyone could recognise the people or places."

One Facebook user commented: "They must be at least 40 years old. I live in North Wales, but none of the locations seem familiar at all."

Another added: "What a lovely collection of photos! Hope you find the owner."

One user wrote: "Wow! How amazing! What beautiful pictures!!!"

Katie Rose added to her original post which has attracted thousands of comments and shared: "UPDATE, the ladies in the 11th photo have now been identified."
