DRUNKEN burglar William Wilson, who caused thousands of pounds of damage by trashing a pub, will pay off his debts with a valuable piece of medieval jewellery he found on the beach.

The 29-year-old smashed up Lily Sugars pub in Creek Road, Hayling Island, after spending an evening there drinking and then deciding to go back and burgle it after it had closed.

During his sentencing hearing at Portsmouth Crown Court, Wilson offered a bronze and gold Anglo-Saxon bracelet he found while metal detecting on a beach as compensation for the damage caused.

The piece has been valued at £3,000 by an expert.

Judge Roger Hetherington said: ‘I know you are willing to pay compensation to the landlords and it’s difficult to judge how much you can afford to pay back.
