A lucky resident from north Norfolk has stepped forward to claim their previously uncollected prize from The National Lottery.
A massive �73,263 had remained outstanding from the draw on Saturday, August 11, but it has now been claimed by an anonymous person from the north Norfolk area.
A spokesman from Camelot UK Lotteries Limited, operator of The National Lottery, said: 'We're delighted that the winner of this amazing prize has now come forward and we hope that they will enjoy their win. It would have been awful if the ticket-holder had missed out on this substantial and life-enhancing amount of money.
'We would like to remind all National Lottery players to check their tickets every time they play.'
Unless the winner of a major National Lottery prize opts to take full publicity and signs an agreement to that effect, no further information can be released about their win.
