Otter sightings on the rise in the centre of Bath (www.bbc.co.uk)

Otters are increasingly being spotted in the centre of one of the West's most visited cities.

After almost being wiped out in the southern part of the UK in the 1970s, their numbers are now on the rise.

Footage captured across Bath shows the creatures swimming through the waterways and exploring the banks of the River Avon, metres from some of the city's iconic sites.

Locals have reported spotting them near the famous Pulteney Bridge and out to Batheaston in the east of the city.
