A 52-year-old man who has been missing for more than six weeks regularly works in Kent.

David Eggleshaw, from Underwood in Nottinghamshire, was reported missing by his family on Saturday, July 22, and has not been in contact since.

He works as a joiner and police say he spends time on building sites all over the country, particularly in Kent, Yorkshire, Humberside, Leicestershire and Birmingham.

Det Insp Caroline Racher said: "When he is working away he usually stops in Bed and Breakfasts and frequents local pubs. David tends to be very sociable and talkative in those situations, so people who meet him would remember him."

Mr Eggleshaw is white, 5ft 7in tall, of slim build, blue eyes and long, greying hair, which is usually tied back in a ponytail.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police on 01623 420999.
