Local Metal Thefts

st-marg-woodhamA copper lightning conductor was stolen from St Margaret’s Church, Woodham Mortimer, Maldon (pictured right) between the evening of 28th October and midday on 30th. The conductor was worth some £200 but the damage caused by cutting it off is likely to cost £1000 to repair.  A similar crime was committed at St Peter’s Church, Totham between November 2nd and 3rd.

Police are appealing for information and witnesses.

We all need to keep an eye out for anything untoward happening near our churches.

If you see anything suspicious ring 999 immediately.
