The prize, which included a trip to the United States, was drawn on the 25th March but had went unclaimed until this month.

A National Lottery spokesperson 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-changing amount of money. We would like to remind all National Lottery players to check their tickets every time they play.”

The ticket was claimed in the Edinburgh South constituency but no further details have been revealed.
