00:03 Derbyshire police are trying to trace three people after an alleged dog attack incident in Derbyshire.
00:09 Officers are showing the images of three people they'd like to speak to after three dogs were reported out of control in Plesley.
00:16 A woman reported that she had been walking her poodle along the trail just off Pit Lane,
00:20 when three people walked past with three dogs which she described as being 'bulldog types'.
00:25 The dogs pulled away from their owners and tried to attack the poodle, but the poodle's owner picked up the dog in time to avoid any injury.
00:32 One of the bulldogs is then said to have jumped up and bit her on the side,
00:35 but she was protected from injury by a thick water vest that she was wearing.
00:39 The three people with the bulldogs, two men and a woman, are then said to have grabbed their dogs and left.
00:44 The incident happened on Saturday 24th February at about 1.45pm.
00:49 Anyone with information is asked to contact Derbyshire police.
00:54 One of Derbyshire's most famous ruined stately homes is set to reopen after a major programme of conservation work.
01:01 Sutton Scarsdale Hall is one of the best known ruined mansions in the country,
01:05 thanks to its prominent position overlooking the M1 motorway.
01:09 The imposing shell of the grandiose Georgian mansion, built between 1724 and 1729,
01:15 was left to fall to ruins in the 1920s, revealing traces of an earlier house.
01:20 English Heritage has been carrying out restoration works at the site for nearly nine years.
01:25 This has included repairs to brick and stone at all levels and removal of invasive vegetation.
01:30 A spokesperson for the charity said that they were looking forward to reopening the site within the next few weeks.
